Johns Hopkins University has joined various universities and organizations in filing a federal lawsuit to block abrupt and significant cuts to research funding from the National Institutes of Health. bit.ly/4hUxmMb JHU President Ron Daniels and @HopkinsMedicine CEO Theodore L. DeWeese emphasize how the proposed cuts jeopardize critical ongoing research in areas like cancer, pediatrics, heart and vascular studies, the aging brain, and more. Not only do these cuts pose an extraordinary challenge to the important and lifesaving work of our faculty, staff, and students at Johns Hopkins but also the future of the American research enterprise.

Our colleague Susan High retires today after 32 years of service to the JH Libraries. Susan started at the SAIS Europe Library and later joined the D.C team. There is no proper way to convey here how impactful she has been to our community - and how greatly appreciated she is!

A great wide-ranging conversation on AI ethics and safety with me, @mdredze @ruchowdh and of course @karaswisher. I don’t think putting ethics and safety together is a contradiction in terms! podcasts.apple.com/us/podcas…
