The UK's answer to DARPA? ARIA's revolutionary plan: copying DARPA's homework but with a British accent.
Because nothing says "cutting-edge science" like admitting you're inspired by your cooler cousin.

Travel support to science conferences in 2025 and 2026 is available from the Critical Zone Network of Networks. Details and the application process linked below.
If the most basic requirement of a government isn't to uphold contracts, what is it?

This seems to cover the report you linked for another website:
I only skimmed it, so caveat emptor.
Excerpt from a Botanical Society of America email I received this morning:
"On May 9th, the Botanical Society of America received notice from the National Science Foundation (NSF) that they were immediately terminating the grant funding that supports our Botany and Beyond: PLANTS III Program. The PLANTS (Preparing Leaders and Nurturing Tomorrow’s Scientists) program supports 20 undergraduate students with a mentored conference experience each year." #research #sciencefunding #uspol
Building scientific progress takes decades; dismantling it can happen overnight. If this proposed budget passes, the future of US science looks bleak.

BREAKING: NSF grants terminated because apparently, science doesn't need money now that the director's gone!
Meanwhile, Nature suggests you update your browser because CSS is the real victim here.

Wow. I’d bet they’d REALLY love this idea:
Congratulations to Giulia Strippoli, whose SMS - Shared Memories of Solidarity project has been selected for funding by FCT under the RESTART programme.

Nearly all modern medical treatments trace back to #NIH-funded research. Now hundreds of active grants are being terminated, jeopardizing progress against cancer, Alzheimer's, infectious diseases and more. https://buff.ly/HhK60HP #ScienceFunding
Do researchers from prestigious universities have an unfair advantage in securing research funding? A new study on China's #NSFC grants confirms the #MatthewEffect — the rich get richer in academia:

Should funding be prestige-blind? I'd advocate for anonymized applications to prevent institutional bias.
Today on Chaos Theory, we explore brain monitoring in the workplace, a villain for hire service, the benefits of morning coffee, the funding pause putting science at risk, and how dogs understand more words than we thought. Plus, a ridiculous press conference from President Trump. #brainmonitoring #supervillain #coffee #sciencefunding #dogintelligence #Trump
