🚨BREAKING. From a program officer at the National Science Foundation, a list of keywords that can cause a grant to be pulled. I will be sharing screenshots of these keywords along with a decision tree. Please share widely. This is a crisis for academic freedom & science.
Hi! I believe you, to be clear- this is terrible for the scientific community and for everyone, really. I was telling my mom about it, and she wants to know if you have any way to back up the validity of what you’re sharing. Thank you.
Feb 4, 2025 15:54I got the screenshots and decision tree from a close, trusted colleague who received it directly from their Program Officer at NSF. I don’t want to name my colleague or the PO because the PO’s job is at risk, but my colleague is a real person who has current NSF funding and no reason to falsify this
Makes sense, thank you for sharing!
