<p>Scientist. <br />Here to share facts, and not to influence or be influenced by opinions.<br />I like to keep one species and its junks out of my photo frames, except for scale or as background. My approach is more realistic than artistic.</p><p>Banner: Osprey fishing<br />Avatar: Bumblebee on Coneflower</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Science" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>Science</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Astronomy" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>Astronomy</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Literature" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>Literature</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Art" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>Art</span></a><br /><a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/MolecularBiol

    Yet Another Attempt to Strangle Scientific Funding: Derek Lowe, Science. &amp;quot;I want to see as much disorganized infighting as possible in all parts of this administration. We may be looking at a fight between one faction that wants to see NIH funding severely beaten up and another faction that wants to see it completely killed, but in these degenerate times one has to take what one can get.&amp;quot; https://www.science.org/content/blog-post/yet-another-attempt-strangle-scientific-funding...
