This is yet another attempt to distract from this Administration's failure to lead an effective response to COVID-19. Immigrants help grow our economy and create jobs. The President can't scapegoat his way out of this crisis.
President Trump will freeze green cards for new immigrants and sign an executive order to suspend H-1B, L-1, J and other temporary work visas for skilled workers, managers and au pairs through the end of the year. trib.al/xBcLTsr

This is the worst thing that’s happened to US science and innovation. Banning #Immigrant scientists will lead to a devastating loss in creativity and productivity. Pretty much every lab in the US will suffer. whitehouse.gov/presidential-…

This is devastating. My entire lab and I are immigrants. We are grateful to this Country that gave us huge opportunities. And we work hard every day to deserve this. This EO is devastating cause it says we are stealing jobs, while we felt we were contributing to something big.

Today's decision is another step in our march toward equality for all. The Supreme Court has confirmed the simple but profoundly American idea that every human being should be treated with respect. But we're not done. medium.com/@JoeBiden/stateme…

Two separate studies in mice suggest that an interferon being evaluated in clinical trials as a therapy for #COVID19 may increase susceptibility to bacterial infections, depending on timing and duration of exposure. fcld.ly/z2ui1gn; fcld.ly/i6trp34

A beautiful video summarizing many of the things that make #Italy a special place - including #science of course! I can't think of a better place than our #Cortina mountains and beautiful #Milan to host the #WinterOlympics2026 #MilanoCortina2026

Mildred e Richard si sposarono nel 1958, quando in Virginia i matrimoni misti erano vietati. Esiliati a Washington DC, fecero ricorso contro lo stato della Virginia. Il caso arrivò in Corte Suprema, che nel '67 abrogò il divieto di matrimoni misti. Il loro amore cambiò il mondo.
