We are doing this and you should be there !

To everyone who has been shocked and depressed by the staggering 40% cut to the BRAIN Initiative: we have a voice! Outside Witness Testimony (aka written testimony) for the FY 2025 appropriations cycle is ongoing. Deadline for the House side is Friday May 3 and the Senate side

I am hearing so many heartbreaking stories about scientists who had exciting proposals lined up, or even great scores on already reviewed grants, now confronted with "Canceled" signs everywhere. When I was looking for a job, I was told not to accept an offer outside the US

SimCo abstracts and YIA applications are due in 1 week (May 13th). This year's meeting has an incredible lineup and more events planned. Come present your research and support NHP neuroscience simiancollective.com/abstract-yia-r… SimianCollective
