Grant terminations have grabbed the headlines and have seen legal action, but even more damaging to the US research enterprise has been the massive decrease in research grants issued by federal agencies NIH: -57% in the number of awards and -63% in value compared to FY24

"This is the science model the U.S. has developed over 80 years: The government sets the agenda and funds the work; university scientists design the studies and find the answers...There is no alternative in the U.S. to produce the kind of scientific advancements represented by these grants." nytimes.com/interactive/2025…

"Without researchers at Harvard or other universities doing this foundational work, it’s not clear who would. The government doesn’t have the expertise. Companies don’t have the luxury of time." nytimes.com/interactive/2025…

New Python image processing and analysis course!! Pls retweet

Quantitative Imaging From Acquisition to Analysis @QIatCSHL applications are due Jan 31! 2 weeks of total microscopy & image analysis immersion with me, @talleylambert.bsky.social, @bethcimini.bsky.social, @florianjug.bsky.social & Hunter Elliott! More info below... Our course has funding for tuition subsidies, which you can apply for when you submit the application. Most students receive at least a partial subsidy. Who takes the course? We usually have a mix of disciplines, including biologists, physicists, computer scientists, engineers & chemists, who are most often grad students, core facility staff, post-docs or the occasional faculty member. What do we look for in an application? We look for those you are actively using light microscopy and/or image analysis for research, or those who advise researchers in these techniques. Probe developers and others who need to learn microscopy are welcome as well! Acceptance into the course is competitive. In your application, the essay is important! Be sure to tell us why you need the course, focusing on your quantitative imaging plans. If you are struggling with quantitative microscopy, explain how and why you think the course can help! meetings.cshl.edu/courses.as…

Dr. @LlopisMontero director of the MicRoN Core at @HarvardMed shares how their vision aligns with LifeCanvas to support cutting-edge science. The core has integrated #MegaSPIM and #SmartBatch for active tissue clearing and light sheet imaging. Learn more: bit.ly/4fRQPf5
