Don’t talk to me about red state governments and their impacts on universities while the donors at elite universities in the northeast are proving to be more conservative in the most actionable ways.

Will Ratcliff I have felt a pretty profound shift. I visit places and actually many trainees feel a strong need to have a translational component to their work. I worry that we have devalued curiosity driven work as a society.

I get the outrage. I’m enraged. But there’s nothing special about professors. Brutalizing anyone —a department chair, a 5y/o in Gaza, a protesting student, a houseless person— should be met with the same response, the same shock, pain, and anger. These lives are of equal value.

Folks, I'm *still* trying to help this young scientist from gaza get a research job. He's interested in computational biology, structural biology, competent at python, recent bachelor's graduate (whose university has been erased). Please dm or email for his cv.

For the stay quiet until you get a job and then stay quiet until you get tenure crowd. Our students are showing us that silence is complicity.

I am funding them, Aviva. I try to donate whenever SAFE UMich hold a fundraiser, and I dropped them off some food today. TAHRIR Coalition's encampment has people of many religious/racial/national backgrounds (jews overrepresented!) working nonviolently in mutual care & respect. +

I initially didn’t pass intro to neuro as a college freshman and now I’m a ✨rising star in neuroscience✨

So excited to be part of this cohort! See you all in Utah!!!

I am proud of every single paper that has come out of my lab, but this one feels truly special.

This time, we asked: How to build a gliding mammal?

Led by the stellar Jorge Moreno 🪼, I am happy to share our latest work, out in nature

When you get the brightest miniscope GCaMP signal but it’s not from the neurons you should focus on for your project 😭

Who is “we”? I’m thrilled to be here with many Jews at MIT, and can’t wait to celebrate Passover here tomorrow!

Actually, this video is good! It proves, from the Zionists' own documentation, that Palestine solidarity encampments on campuses *are* peaceful. This person wants confrontation, but that's not what the students want. They're there for divestment and a free Palestine.

So basically neither candidate can hit the target, and both candidates will have comparable effects by 2050 👍🏼

Any person who thinks student protests in the US have no effect needs to read up on the Vietnam war era and on the fight to divest from apartheid South Africa.

Those cheering on the NYPD and Columbia's crack down like to invoke the safety of Jewish students and combating anti-semitism. Strangely, almost no mention is ever made of the many Jewish student protesters and their safety. Such as the 20 Jewish students arrested at Brown. 2/
