Solarpunk Presents Podcast7.8: Why Do These Cancelled Science Grants Matter?
In this episode, Christina talks to Dr Gabriel Filippelli - one of the first scientists to have a running project canceled by the Trump administration. This fascinating interview reveals just how important internationally these American grants can be, and Dr Filippelli passionately describes this unprecedented attack on science and education and what we all lose when the work that scientists do grinds to a halt or is extremely politically curtailed. It's important, he tells us, to support the institutions that you care about and are vital to the continued knowledge of how to survive our climate-changed future.
Dr Filippelli is the Chancellor’s Professor of Earth Sciences at Indiana University Indianapolis and the Executive Director of the Indiana University Environmental Resilience Institute. He works at the junction between biogeochemical cycles, climate change, and human health.
Dr Filippelli has also written the book Climate Change and Life: The Complex Co-evolution of Climate and Life on Earth, and Beyond, which explores Earth's ecological resilience to the great changes in climate that have occurred over the history of the Earth. He was also part of the driving force behind Climate Change and Resilience in Indiana and Beyond, which details local efforts to reduce the risks and lessen the harmful impacts of climate change, as well as prepare for the unavoidable consequences of climate change.

7.8: Why Do These Cancelled Science Grants Matter?
AMPEL-CDSSWhere are the obstacles in financing projects on the future topic of #ClinicalAI support?
That's what we asked the experts from the Clinical Decision Support Network (#CDSN).
Our interpretation: Funding generally tends to be divided between academic research and business-driven funding. That presents a challenge for #CDS researchers — because their field often lies right in between!

(worst-case scenarios begin to play out for #science and #academicfunding. this might make the cover my fake magazine, #ScienceUndergound, for the March edition)

"I was just told that I have to remove “climate” from the title of an ongoing grant if I want to keep it. And publications from that grant cannot include #climate and other forbidden words. I can’t believe I’m writing this from the United States of America."
Dr Julia Molinari PhD SFHEAIs there a similar funding guide for #academics, one that goes beyond the usual suspects?

doctorambientOne of the things that we're constantly told is Central to academic life is intellectual freedom. I'm just going to say it:
Bullshit.
Academic life is nowhere near as free as people think it is.
Let's start with the usual one: you can research whatever you want.
I don't want to overuse this, but again, bullshit. The truth is that in many academic faculty positions a substantial portion of your own salary has to be covered by research. That research has to be funded.

Naomi JacobsAn awesome opportunity for #disabled academics and activists who are new to #DisabilityStudies or to scholar-activism in #DisabilityJustice.

JulietJFallAnyone care to sponsor me to buy this abandoned border post? This would be my dream drawing studio for finishing my border comic! Maybe I need a fundraising project here, or a spare 450’000 Swiss Francs, or a real bestseller? Hmmm…
