I was delighted to have an editorial in my hometown paper on the administration's threat to the NIH and what it means for the health and welfare of my peeps. For the good it may do, I urge you to also write one @sciencehomecoming.bsky.social
Bonus: It's cathartic to write a scream into the void.
A huge thank you to all our lab members for your hard work and contributions – none of this would be possible without you!
We also have three exciting papers under review, exploring GPCR dimers and psychedelics. And just days before New Year's Eve, we received the NoA for an R01 renewal marking years 16-20 of NIH funding for this project.
My first post on Bluesky! Amid the uncertainty surrounding federal funding in the U.S., we still have plenty to celebrate in the lab! Congratulations to Dominique Sorhaindo on her acceptance to the VCU School of Pharmacy and to Enrique Valenzuela on completing his B.S. in Biology at VCU.
