Call to End Freeze on Federal Grants
The White House's pause on federal grants threatens our nation’s scientific progress. This unprecedented freeze will impact students and trainees who rely on grants, funded investigators, and patients waiting for critical discoveries and treatments, in addition to having an economic impact for employees and employers at universities and organizations that are economic drivers in the U.S.
Read SfN's full statement urging this Administration to lift the freeze to protect the health and security of our nation: bit.ly/4gq9i2I

Wowza news in early literacy:
Study shows major gains in K-1 reading outcomes from use of the viral, and virtually free, UFLI foundational skills program.
In fact, I’ve never seen effect sizes this high from a study of a literacy program.
Congrats @HollyLanePhD @burnsmk1 @UFLiteracy!

It’s crazy how talking with a science buddy is simultaneously what’s most likely to move the project forward and the thing that’s least prioritized in our schedule.
