For local (state wide) reporting, USFWS says to contact your local wildlife agency (try googling dept. of natural resources etc for reporting in your state).

The next Einstein, Curie, or Salk might be sitting in a lab right now, wondering if they should quit. Don’t let them. Fund science like the future depends on it…because actually it does.

Distilling the potential impact of science based on a title is so dangerous. Some of the biggest biomedical breakthroughs came from research that, at first glance, seemed ‘pointless or unrelated. Here are a few that I'm sure might have caused an uproar in the headlines:

🦅❤️ This Valentine’s Day, we’re celebrating Dr. Trish Miller & Mike Lanzone who were featured in an NPR story for their Golden Eagle conservation work in Maine using CTT’s telemetry tech! 🎧 npr.org/2025/02/14/nx-… #GoldenEagle #WildlifeConservation #ValentinesDay

We are The Action Potential, a non-partisan think tank that informs the public about the science behind the issues, attitudes, and trends shaping the world. Our membership includes hundreds of people from science, to the performing arts, and everything between and beyond.

GOOD NEWS: So proud to say that the call made last year for scientists and allied professions to unite for the greater good has resulted in an outstanding effort that will make a huge impact. Watch this space, we've been cooking since November and ready to SERVE!

I’m still failing to see the long term vision here for a country that wants to create a healthier America and as a result should be the in lead with science, tech and innovation. govexec.com/workforce/2025…

Nobody will share this post, but there has to be a sane voice in the digital wilderness. Alabama and the Deep South will not experience any high impact weather events over the next 10 days. No tornadoes, floods, winter storms, or severe cold waves.  Beyond 10 days, there is

The claim that graduate students are “free/cheap labor” is not just wrong—it is utterly infuriating. I have to wonder: how many of the people spreading this absurd misinformation have actually trained a PhD student? How many have poured years into mentoring, teaching, and shaping

The Trump admin just fired key staff at NIH’s Alzheimer’s research center - including the incoming director. With 6.9M Americans affected and cases set to double by 2050, cutting research means fewer breakthroughs and more suffering. Patients and families deserve better.

What a bad take. I agree that we don’t have enough R1 college positions so should support students who want to go industry, etc…also though I don’t know anyone getting paid $60k lol. In bio, on the high end make $30K but this typically includes free tuition.

Proud of what Wilson Ornith Soc is doing to support ornithologists affected by the Trump administration's attack on science. Those suffering hardship related to the EOs, layoffs, etc. can get free membership and registration to the upcoming meeting here: tinyurl.com/vf34sh93

I believe it was Confucius who said, “Two wrongs don’t make a right, but two birds make everything alright.”
