BREAKING: All flights in and out of Reagan National Airport are currently halted due to a bomb threat on a flight, a source familiar with the situation tells me. The plane is isolated on the east end of the field. The FAA just extended the DCA ground stop until 1:30 PM ET.

NIH has announced a cut in the "indirect rate" to 15% across the board, in a move that appears to be retroactive to even existing grants. This is a bloodbath for research institutions throughout the country. Brief explainer for those not in this world: buff.ly/3EtML7D

It is unacceptable and deeply harmful to public health that the Biden Administration has once again delayed issuing the final rule to prohibit menthol cigarettes. This decision prioritizes politics over lives, especially Black lives. Our statement👇 tobaccofreekids.org/press-releases…

@Caitlin__Duffy This is terrible. In our department we focus just on the science of their dissertation. Students are not supposed to bring food or drink. They should just focus on their research and not feel obligated to provide anything to their committee or others.
