The @nihvigils.bsky.social is an accomplishment, 75+ consecutive weeks and counting. Daily for 700 days. Inspirational. Go Georgia.

Vote Blue. Since the fall of Roe, 1000 women have been charged w/ pregnancy related crimes, mostly miscarriages. Yet the people who should be held accountable for REAL CRIMES roam around free. This is toxically ass backwards. #pinks

I strenuously deny that NIH has a list of banned words. But if we did, "artificial intelligence" would be on it. datascience.nih.gov/super-intell...

Dr. Sethi never held an NIH grant, finished her residency in 2017, and hasn't had a significant leadership position. In other words, an early stage investigator may direct an institute. NIMH staff and stakeholders deserve a more experienced leader. www.science.org/content/arti...

The health of 342 million Americans shouldn’t depend on one person’s beliefs. I’m an NIH scientist, clinician, and autism specialist. RFK is dismantling NIH. If he wanted to build trust, he’d reimburse clinicians for time to answer patients’ questions, not create a CPT code for vaccine injury.

Anna Culbertson Former NIH Scientific program specialist and I agree RFK Jr. is destroying the NIH. Happy to talk with anyone who wants to challenge me on that. Thank you for calling attention to this @markhisted.org

This week, NIH advisors rebuked RFK for harming #NIH and US science. Sheryl Gay Stolberg reported it. Then RFK posted calling her sources anonymous or corrupt. I'll say this hoping it does good: I'm an NIH scientist, I'm not anonymous, and RFK Jr is destroying NIH. More in attachment:

NEWS: The NIH whistleblower @jenna-m-norton.bsky.social, who was put on paid leave in November after criticizing the Trump administration’s cuts to medical research, has been reinstated — without explanation. www.nytimes.com/2026/05/01/u...

This was fitting news to receive on May 1, international workers day. I will be returning to work on Monday after being kept on retaliatory administrative leave for 5 months and 3 weeks. I return along with the brave Katrina Declaration signers from FEMA, also reinstated this week. 🧵1/?

The NIH Vigils has become a place for community and support as we endure censorship and antiscience policies inside NIH. Every week for a year, we have gathered to mourn the losses to science and the harms to public health. And we will continue to gather every Saturday until NIH is rebuilt.

Sharing this screen grab from a friend at NIH (with permission). This is a checklist program officers have to complete before a grant can be awarded. The first question: "Is this grant All Clean/Clear in the NIH Text analysis Tool?" 🧵1/3

Our Impeach Vought website got a little glow up. www.impeachvought.com Including new sections to get involved and develop social media content. Check it out! PS - as of right now, we have 1699 signatures. Who's going to be lucky number 1700? actionnetwork.org/forms/civil-...

In spirit of open conversation, a few current* and recent NIHers prepared some Qs for Bhattacharya during his #NASEM fireside chat. We will submit these on the NASEM Slido this afternoon. Let's see if they get asked! *in personal capacity 🧵1/7

I just stumbled across this. Warning: it may require deep breathing to get through. The fact that Bhattacharya continues to tout academic freedom after censoring people, science and projects at both NIH and CDC is wildly absurd. His hypocrisy is astounding. 🧵1/? today.usc.edu/nih-director...

For those in Chicago, attend if you can to hear what’s really happening inside NIH. The presenters have recent experience inside NIH and are closely connected to many still inside.
