New paper on my side project that I'm extremely proud of. 🧪 Simple modified Markov model can accurately reproduce empirical past-month frequency-of-use distributions of various substances in the National Survey on Drug Use and Health. www.jasss.org/28/2/5.html

Interesting paper: "...10% of NIH grants generate a patent directly but 30% generate articles that are subsequently cited by patents....also find no systematic relationship between the “basic” versus “applied” research...and its propensity to be cited by a patent." www.science.org/doi/full/10....

New NIH Study Section meetings being posted on federal register. Hopefully grant review meeting pipeline keeps opening up. But if you get a grant and they agree to provide funding, are they going to give the original indirect rate or the 15%? 🧪

This needs more attention. May be able to draw on currently funded grants, but if no new grants can get approved b/c they're canceling grant review meetings, $ will run out eventually and we'll feel the full lag effect a year from now. 🧪
