My NSF CAREER proposal got recommended by the review panel and PO, but denied by “upper management” who has serious misgivings on the proposed research. Will hear more from the PO tomorrow.
This has been devastating, as we have worked so hard on this, and have put on so much hope/stake on it.
I work as a scientist in the US because I believed academic freedom, but it seems not existing anymore.
I guess it’s time to really move on… I will seriously look for an alternative career.

“Party under Xi’s leadership seems to legit try to do its best for the country and people.” This is BS. You don’t see the unemployment data at all

I came to the US to flee this authoritarian BS. Now US is catching up in the extent of authoritarianism

It's a pretty clear middle finger for scientists/universities. The question is can we fight back?
