Last year, $9B of the $35B that the National Institutes of Health (NIH) granted for research was used for administrative overhead, what is known as “indirect costs.” Today, NIH lowered the maximum indirect cost rate research institutions can charge the government to 15%, above what many major foundations allow and much lower than the 60% that some institutions charge the government today. This change will save more than $4B a year effective immediately.

Excited to share the FIRST publication from my lab in Development @Dev_journal ! 😃This work explores how acute inflammation impacts the megakaryocyte differentiation and maturation. Huge thanks to my team and collaborators for their support and insights! @Co_Biologists

Joy is everywhere at #ASH24 🩸 It's in the exchange of ideas — from session rooms to dinner conversations — in the reunions we cherish each year, and in celebrating our colleagues' incredible achievements. Every moment feels special and fun, and some are unexpected! 🐶🦄

As a new PI, I'm often found in the mouse room as well. It's amusing how, despite everyone donning gowns to enter the mouse room, I sometimes get mistaken for a new student. It even led to some students giving me impromptu lessons on mouse work😄

K-562. It was the first human cell line I ever tried to grow in culture, during training @MayoClinic. It was also the first immortalized myeloid leukemia #cellline, published @BloodJournal way back in 1975. What does the K stand for? #HematologyTweetstory 37 is on cell lines./1

Continuing our extraterrestrial #Hematology #FunFactFriday theme: astronauts develop "space anemia" because their red blood cells are destroyed more quickly after arriving in space. This continues for up to a year after returning to Earth!
