New piece out by the #Georgia #StanceOnScience team regarding what #midterm candidates have to say about important science policy issues: athensscienceobserver.wordpress.com/2026/10/26/o... #Stance @snapcoalition.org

Some of the #southwestUS Stance on Science leaders have been tinkering and thinking about how the upcoming #2026Midterms will affect one of the most pressing issues in our Four Corners region - WATER! 💧 So, we decided to dig in. Check it out wherever you read your blogs and musings these days...

This was such a joy to work on over the past few months! Take a look at the materials if your science policy group wants to learn more!

Who comes to mind when you picture a scientist? This #HispanicHeritageMonth, meet hundreds of Hispanic/Latinx & Latin American scientists changing how we understand our world! Explore the Atlases, find a scientist, and share their story 🥳🔬🌎 www.inspiringlatamscientists.org

If you are part of an academic society or a professor of any kind, public statements that you do not condone Drexel cutting off the academy of natural sciences from the public of Philadelphia is very important right now. We need your voices. Urgently.

Are you interested in learning more about science policy issues? Do you want to help inform your community about candidate views on scientific or environmental issues? Volunteer with Stance on Science! #stanceonscience #snap #scipolicy

Whoa! New materials for a #SciencePolicy course? Designed to be accessible for #scientists and #students? Check it out here: snapcoalition.org/initiatives/... We have #SciPol, #SciComm, #ScienceDiplomacy, & more! Modules were made over the last year by SNAPpers, and are free to download and use.

In honor of the 2026 www.goldengooseaward.org out today, I wanted to share this blog post I wrote for @snapcoalition.org earlier this month where I reflected on the value of basic science. medium.com/science-policy-in-a-snap/its-a-wonderful-life-afe73bbf079e

Candidates from federal, state, and local #elections IN OVER 40 STATES are telling us how they will think about science and #evidence in #policymaking. The open-access resource, if you want to check it out: snapcoalition.org/initiatives/... Just click your state!

I want to give a huge shout-out our giant nationwide team supported by @snapcoalition.org who have been pushing Stance on Science ahead. Almost 500 (500!!!) candidates up for election have shared their stances on timely #Science and #Technology #Policy issues ahead of the #midterms.

In 1863, Lincoln signed the National Academy of Sciences into law as an INDEPENDENT non-gov entity. Since WW2, we enjoyed pre-eminence in research. We benefitted from Germany's brain drain. We had the privilege of first access to next gen treatments before other countries. They looked to us. 🧪🧵
