What an amazing opportunity!
In our current Focus issue, #AgeingandCancer, Marco Demaria outlines how understanding the underlying molecular mechanisms of cancer treatment induced premature ageing-related conditions is crucial for developing integrated strategies to improve survivor health.

Great work from @lydialynch.bsky.social lab and colleagues

Super cool!
Congrats @asaelroichman.bsky.social excited to read!!

Nothing will kill more children than the ongoing decimation of CDC, NIH, and USAID work to lift vaccine uptake in the US and world.
Child survival rose 75% in the last 50 years. Vaccines account for 40% of that. Measles vax alone was 60% of the benefit. www.thelancet.com/journals/lan...
Oooh that Elon felon one is good!
... gait speed. Still better than anything molecular biomarkers can provide. Our commentary (with @regula-furrer.bsky.social @biozentrum.unibas.ch @unibas.ch) out now in NPJ Aging:

"When you hear about patients surviving stage 4 cancer because of immunotherapy, that was based on NIH research over many decades. When you hear about sickle cell disease being cured because of CRISPR gene editing, that was built on years of research supported by NIH"

Shocking.
Happy to share this new #glycotime work with collaborator Tony Wyss-Coray, led by grad student Sophia Shi, mucin loss at the BBB is associated with aging and cognitive decline, can be reversed by restoration with with gene therapy. Aging is a mucinopathy!

A whole generation of early career scientists and physician-scientists, including colleagues and myself, are particularly vulnerable to these funding freezes and cuts, with jobs and careers depending on federal grants.

This is an example of research that will save lives but would be blocked by the current administration:
Great to see AFAR! We need more of this! @afar.org
So if Musk doesnβt run DOGE, and DOGE isnβt a real government agency, then no one has to listen to Musk or do what the DOGE bros tell them to do, right?
Donald Trump and Elon Musk are trying to cut funding for cancer and rare disease research.
A federal judge temporarily blocked the cuts in some states, but this fight is not over.
We canβt let them play politics with our health.
Welcome to the Bluesky account for Stand Up for Science 2025!
Keep an eye on this space for updates, event information, and ways to get involved. We can't wait to see everyone #standupforscience2025 on March 7th, both in DC and locations nationwide!

This!!!!
How much Elon Musk makes from the government a day: $8 million.
How much a senior on Social Security gets a day: $65
Guess which budget Musk and Trump want to cut?
Government isn't a business. The goal isn't to save money. Success isn't measured by budget surplus.
The goal is to spend money, investing in society. Every dollar spent on education, healthcare, and science is an investment in our collective wellbeing.
