I hate writing figure legends but here's one problem I see over and over. What's the first question reader asks when looking at a figure? WHAT am I looking at? WHAT. Start legend with WHAT the thing is (Western blots/Images/Graphs show that...). Don't put WHAT on the 5th line.

Most people want to do the "big #science experiment". But I've learnt the hard way that most imp. thing is to build a strong foundation - test that antibody again, repeat the amazing western, use another method to confirm that unexpected result. Saves months or years in the end.

If you think the troubles at NIH does not affect you, you just need to wait. Due to multi-year funding, NINDS will be able to fund 40% fewer grants next cycle...even if budget stays same. Yes, message from one of the highest levels. Talk to Congress, that's the only way now.

Amidst this chaos, current paylines have been revised due to "multi year funding" and many grants that were administratively pending (means funding being prepared") have been deemed unfundable. These were the best ideas extensively vetted by reviewers and council.

Grateful to @megtirrell and @CNN for covering this story. My NIH grant to study hearing loss was abruptly canceled, then restored by a court, but @NIH hopes to terminate the grant AGAIN(statnews.com/2025/07/06/hhs…), creating massive uncertainty for my trainees. We're in a golden age…

This is insane. If this holds and 50% of all grants are suddenly required to be funded for full five years instead of one year (and it sounds like this policy will pass, given the quote from Battacharya?), that means even without any ostensible budget cut, NIH funding next year…

America must remain a global leader in science. That’s why I joined my Senate GOP colleagues in urging OMB to release NIH funds Congress has already appropriated for critical research in cancer, heart disease, and rare disorders.
