- Reposted by Kalina ML Fahey, PhD (she/her)Lots of people asking about who has co-sponsored the articles of impeachment against RFK Jr. w/ @rephaleystevens.bsky.social. The answer is Rep. Eric Swalwell. This is why we need people power NOW. Sign the petition & call your rep asking them to co-sponsor: www.standupforscience.net/impeach-rfkjr
- Celebrating the small wins! My scoping review of substance use in transgender youth has reached 50 citations! So happy this project is being used to inform research filling important gaps. www-sciencedirect-com.libproxy.unm.edu/science/arti...

- Reposted by Kalina ML Fahey, PhD (she/her)My first funding curve post for Fiscal Year 2026 FY2026 is off to a slow start. Some of this is due to the government shut down, but some of it is likely due to the new process for "remediating" applications that are deemed not to align with "agency priorities".

- Reposted by Kalina ML Fahey, PhD (she/her)In Medicaid patients with new OUD dx, methadone and buprenorphine were associated with >75% reduction in overdose risk. Only 30% received medication treatment. Timely medication treatment is critical. Study by: @treitlerpeter.bsky.social. newsroom.taylorandfrancisgroup.com/nearly-seven...
- Reposted by Kalina ML Fahey, PhD (she/her)A commonly held belief is that the brain keeps maturing until age 25 and then stops, meaning that we should limit substance use until this timepoint. A new AJDAA paper dispels that myth and provides implications for #Cannabis use policy. Read it here: www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10....

- Another week, another NIH funding email where it says "none" under new opportunities...🫠
- Reposted by Kalina ML Fahey, PhD (she/her)Big update to scienceimpacts.org: See the devastating impact of cancelled NIH grants across the country, and how losses at specific institutions ripple out to surrounding communities. This is all in addition to the future losses that would result from cutting funds for indirect costs of research.
- Major update to #SCIMaP visualization of impacts of cuts to federally supported health research. Map now includes information on future economic losses (impact of proposed reduction of NIH IDC to 15%) and current economic losses (impact of terminated NIH grants). scienceimpacts.org
- Reposted by Kalina ML Fahey, PhD (she/her)🚨 URGENT RESPONSE CALL 🚨 Trump’s Fool’s Gold Science EO is a dangerous sham. It gives his appointees the power to dismiss entire bodies of research and punish researchers who fail to fall in line with his agenda. We’ve launched an open letter.
