- Happy Birthday, #NSF. Thank you for all you’ve done for promoting science and innovation for the betterment of society. #SaveNSF
- 🧵🧪 It’s like watching your friend who has the most expensive Lego set on the block, after painstakingly building it up brick by brick so that it is the envy of everyone everywhere…start smashing it so that it lacks form or function. Just a pile of bricks… #NSF
- Uggghh… more harmful and destructive shenanigans going down at #NSF

- Join us for the next ARCUS Community Call – this Friday, May 9 at 9am AK/1pm ET on Zoom! We'll hear updates from AOOS & ABR Inc. and talk about the impacts of recent federal science funding news. Register: us02web.zoom.us/meeting/regi... #ArcticResearch #NSF #CommunityScience #ARCUS
- NSF-supported researchers have developed molecular nanocages that can remove 80-90% of PFAS (aka "forever chemicals") from contaminated water. Read more using the link. #NSF #nanotechnology #environmental #science
- Join @fabbs.org on Friday, May 9th, at 2:00PM ET for an informative webinar on responding to #NSF grant terminations. Register here: us02web.zoom.us/webinar/regi...
- #WithoutNSF I wouldn’t be a scientist! My PhD was supported by #NSF, I was awarded an #NSF DDIG, & my postdoc was supported by #NSF to sequence the maize genome! I am very grateful to #NSF’s support #SupportNSF #SaveNSF See baucomlab.wordpress.com/publications/ for research supported by #NSF
- Send your #NSF #NationalScienceFoundation FY25 grants data and your personal grant termination stories their way. #SaveNSF

- @bluntrochester.senate.gov @coons.senate.gov @mcbride.house.gov Please stop the assault on science funding. The #NSF is the latest with a cut of Indirect costs to 15%, a moratorium on new awards, and cancellation of existing awards.
- Thanks to scienceimpacts.org for mapping the impacts of cutting NIH indirect costs & making it easy for local news to focus on the impacts to their community Thanks to @sciencehomecoming.bsky.social for helping researchers write op-eds for their hometown newspapers about the impacts on science 4/
- Save the NSF are calling on #NSF grantees from across the last 75 years to share their stories: with colleagues, with media, with the local community, and with elected officials. Check out the tools to help your #advocacy. #savensf #sciencenews #iambiology www.savensf.com/take-action

- My daughter: I just hope there are colleges that make it, and I get to go to one. I never really liked dolls. Said as we discussed last weeks #NSF, NEA, and DoE announced cuts.
- ‼️CALLING ALL SCIENTISTS‼️ Share how your government-funded research benefits society. They only have 37 examples so far and we ALL know there are orders of magnitude more than that. publicusaresearchbenefits.com #WeekOfAction #SaveScience #ScienceImpacts #NASA #NOAA #NSF #NIH #NIST #DOE
- #LSAMP provided me with the necessary research experiences as an undergrad @boisestate.bsky.social which helped launch my scientific career @universityofga.bsky.social. I am a scientist because of this #NSF #funding!
- Join us for the first ERC EARTH Webinar featuring Dr. John Bischof as he delves into cutting-edge NSF ATP Bio research on cryogenically suspending and rewarming living systems! 🗓️ Today, May 6, 2025 🕑 2:00–3:00 PM CT 📍 Zoom - kansas.zoom.us/j/88170574784 📌Passcode: 2025 #Cryopreservation #NSF #ERC
- America can't lead the world in innovation with a gutted NSF. Former directors are sounding the alarm: the Trump budget would cripple science, cede leadership to China, and set us back a generation. We need investment, not abandonment. #NSF www.commerce.senate.gov/services/fil...
- 100% this. And moreover expanding and diversifying the scientific workforce is literally NSF’s Congressionally mandated mission. #NSF has been, overall, an extraordinarily powerful engine of advancement for science and society for 75 years
- #academicsky #nsf #science #educationsky #researchers & H/T to @sarosecav.bsky.social who is spreading the word over on Linkedin, where it popped up in my feed!
- Yesterday, I met @davidho.bsky.social at #EGU25. We briefly talked about the #attackonscience in the #US. The recent developments at #NSF are just devastating.
- The National Science Foundation #NSF has paused all new grants per memo leaked to Nature. Email states “stop awarding all funding actions until further notice.” nature.com/articles/d41586-025…
I made a dashboard to compare NSF funding by division/directorate during FY 24 vs FY 25. #academicsky #science 🧪 #NSF uci-bme-jpbrody.shinyapps.io/NSFAwardData/- 🧪💪I know folks are struggling to appeal #NSF grant terminations I created a generic GD version of our team's response plan, including a draft appeal*, based on compiled guidance. *Not a lawyer, best guess! Also, DMs open for ?/feedback. @davidimiller.bsky.social docs.google.com/document/d/1...
- UPDATE: We have data on >1000 terminated #NSF grants at grant-watch.us. Thanks to all who have been contributing data the past few days. We've also added a "Reports" section with some analyses. For NSF, we see that the STEM education directorate has been absolutely pummeled.
- Hundreds of NSF research grants terminated in a single day - Agency’s director abruptly resigns. #NSF #grants #research #science #congress #doge #musk #trump #phdsky #bluecrew #bluesky #medsky #bluestorm #bluewave #politics #impeach #uspol #polhub
- This is chilling. The slowing of grant funding to a crawl could, through recission later this year, result in drastically reduced FY25 funding that provides the excuse for drastically reduced science funding going forward. The copy-paste of this strategy to #NSF and others seems likely. 🧪#ChemSky
- New at Can We Still Govern: An anonymous NIH employee maps out the GOP budget gameplan to permanently gut our most important science agency. Impoundment, delay and red tape will create artificial "savings" that become the new benchmark for NIH budgets. donmoynihan.substack.com/p/the-nih-bu...
- My brain cannot get passed how Congress is fully ceding its power by letting these #NSF terminations happen for competitively awarded training grants, claiming that they don't align with agency priorities, when this is the federal statute for Broader Impacts #WithoutNSF #NSFfunding
- 🚨 Another major round of #NSF terminations today 😞. Please report and encourage your colleagues to as well! We need this info to shed light on the damage caused, and to organize and advocate for science that includes and benefits all. airtable.com/appGKlSVeXni... 🧪
- 🚨Report your NSF grant terminations! 🚨 We are starting to collect information on NSF grant terminations to create a shared resource as we have for NIH. The more information we collect, the more we can organize, advocate, and fight back! Please share widely! airtable.com/appGKlSVeXni...
