Regarding gutting if DEI-Comprehensive research into the biology of humans as a whole requires including investigation into the biology of women. This isn’t a “woke issue” or a DEI issue, this is a scientific issue.We can’t go back to one size fits all again. That failed us before.🧪 #academicsky
FWIW... The law requires NIH to ensure diversity in its funded research, emphasizing inclusion of women... not females. Women. The law is on the side of diversity, equity, and Inclusion.

There were also non-scientists at #StandUpForScience. Elena Badger says “I have a lot of friends that are scientists, but honestly, that doesn't even matter. I think anyone should be here supporting science because science helps everyone.”

Trump is prepping an executive order to dismantle the Dept. of Education, directly harming students. It will drain resources from the most vulnerable, skyrocket class sizes, make higher ed more expensive, strip special ed services, and gut student civil rights protections. We won't let this happen.
