Universe 25 Experiment

A series of rodent experiments showed that even with abundant food and water, personal space is essential to prevent societal collapse, but Universe 25's relevance to humans remains disputed.

Illustration of a hole in the shape of a dollar sign on a blue background. One character is falling into the hole at the bottom of the “S” while another individual is holding another up at the top of the “S”. The image represents the absence of funding for researchers in biotech with the cancellation of the SBIR/STTR program.

The Federal Government’s Research Innovation Lifeline Has Gone Dark

Congressional inaction has led to the expiration of the federal government’s SBIR/STTR program, cutting off a biotechnology lifeline.

Cartoon showing a balance scale on an orange background. On the right side of the scale, a stack of books with a college graduation cap pulls the scale down. On the left, a cartoon person is adding more gold coins to the scale to try to balance the cost. This image illustrates the high cost of academic publishing that researchers experience.

Rising Publication Costs Strain Researchers

Open access publishing has led to researchers paying thousands of dollars to publish their work, limiting funds for research and leaving scientists with hard choices.
