The award for most well-intentioned but flawed allyship goes to my #GRFP reviewer who said "they undertook a variety of positions to enhance their academic portfolio, including being part of the LGBTQ+ community"
Excited to launch Big Red Pen, grant review services, because NSF funding is only getting tougher, but strong proposals still rise to the top. I have decades of NSF success and 10 years of panel experience. Let’s get funded. #NSF from #GRFP to #CAREER.

Speaking of #GRFP, it's upsetting to see my student's reviews (finally came out). The main critic: they didn't think he can do a plant bio project bc he didn't study plant bio in undergrad. Sure he did a year of post-bac in plant bio and now in a plant bio PhD program but obviously nothing matters 🤷♀️

#NSF changed the #GRFP eligibility so that 2nd years are no longer eligible. The change was made without notice or rationale. It is devastating to have this career-defining opportunity taken away from a whole generation of early-career scientists. If you agree, please consider signing the petition
