NY-CURES

📢 SIGN & SHARE THE PETITION! 📢 New York needs an Empire Biomedical Research Institute to create new statewide funding opportunities for scientists & physician-scientists so that patients and their families get the life-saving and life-changing new therapeutics they're hoping for ✏️ c.org/TDMy2H9JTW

What if the next breakthrough never comes? The trailer for The Endless Frontier, a new documentary, by two time Emmy Winning Director Marilyn Ness. @nycures.bsky.social @standupforscience.net @aai.org @aaas.org @nature.com @sciam.bsky.social @statnews.com www.youtube.com/watch?v=rZ6s...

New opinion in @lohud.com by Jonathan Teyan & Paola Bianchimano on why NYS must invest in biomedical research through EBRI including the fact that NY trains 1 in 7 U.S. doctors—and public research investment delivers up to a 10:1 economic return. EBRI would secure both. www.lohud.com/story/opinio...

We’re very close, and when we reach 2000 signatures, petition will be sent to @governor.ny.gov ahead of her Executive Budget announcement and revision period throughout January! So share with friends & family! c.org/hwy54dWJDb

5 minutes to get a comfy seat for the Governor’s State of the State! We'll be watching closely for signals on whether EBRI will be included in the FY26–27 Executive Budget 🧐 @governor.ny.gov www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kyx6...

NY state friends, please do this today! The Governor’s State of the State is tomorrow, January 13 at 1:00 PM. We are hopeful she will announce the Empire Biomedical Research Institute (EBRI). Email the Governor and your Reps! actionnetwork.org/letters/supp...

Get your ⛸️ ⛸️ on - there's still time to SIGN UP for today's noon 📣 TOWNHALL 📣 and join scientists, medical school representatives, patients, and policy makers to discuss the proposal for a state-backed research funding institute for biomedical science!

@governor.ny.gov we’re set on one goal in 2026: getting EBRI up & running so New Yorkers get the benefits ASAP after such a hard year for many. EBRI is a transformative investment bringing new medicines & money that can solve other priorities in education, healthcare, transport for the long term.

As a doctor and scientist working to advance health, science, and economic growth in NY, I’m urging @governor.ny.gov to invest in the Empire Biomedical Research Institute to keep the state competitive, sustain jobs, and grow our life science economy. @gothamist.com reports: tinyurl.com/5fab5k7u

New York’s research ecosystem delivered plenty of “nice list” rewards this year. Now we need Albany to deliver EBRI so we can keep that impact growing. Research is the gift that keeps on giving, so for a healthier and wealthier New Year for all New Yorkers, sign our letter to 🎅 >>> c.org/hwy54dWJDb

Science needs champions—and Keystone Symposia SAB delivers. 🌟 @drshrutinaik.bsky.social (@IcahnMountSinai) calls on scientists to step out of the lab and fight for the future of science with @nycures.bsky.social . keypoint.keystonesymposia.org/home/shruti-... #ScienceAdvocacy

1000!

We’re heading for one thousand ⭐️ signatures today! Thank you to all who have signed and shared so far, Still plenty of other people to reach before we all wrap up for the holidays, so send family and friends the petition link as an early resolution for a happier New Year! c.org/rstb5XTvns

🗞️ in @gothamist.com from @clewisreports.bsky.social. Our 2 cents: EBRI doesn’t compete with other urgent needs — it equips NYS to meet them. Not funding it now worsens pressures; funding it grows the economy to help fix them. State-backed research is a win-win-win-win. gothamist.com/news/ny-medi...

Petition for a NY Biomedical Institute. This is a no-brainer to support science in NY, similar to programs in CA/TX. www.change.org/p/support-a-...

What drives our push for a state-wide funding institute is the recognition that everyone in the biomedical research ecosystem — from students to PIs, critical support staff, and the patients who participate in trials & advocacy — are rock stars. ✍️ & share the petition, nearing 600! c.org/nDnRNSsVcq

Always worth repeating: Every new medicine begins in an academic lab, and this publicly funded research is one of the strongest economic engines a state can support, making the proposed EBRI a win-win for everyone, so sign and share >>> c.org/nDnRNSsVcq

Comment of the day on the petition calling for a funding institute to elevate biomedical research across New York State! Sign & share!

It’s been amazing to watch the growth of the biomedical industry in NYC over the past decade. It’s also terrible watching it be destroyed by federal actions. To remain competitive with respect to national and global centers of biomedical research and industry, NY state must step in and invest!

If you’re a voter in New York state, you have an opportunity to help ensure local institutions remain worldwide leaders in biomedical research. See below, and follow NY-CURES!

The NYFIRST program shows what smart state investment in science can do: $13.7 M → $180 M in matching funds 177 high-skilled jobs World-class researchers recruited to NY's medical schools. Imagine what a state biomedical research institute could do next 📈 ✍️ www.nycures.org to make this happen!
