I am deeply concerned about the cuts to indirect cost rates on NIH grants. "These costs are not a waste or luxury — they make groundbreaking discoveries possible." This change will cause the U.S. to lose its position as a global leader in medical research. Encourage your policymakers to act now!
The NIH’s drastic cut to indirect cost rates is a critical threat to U.S. research infrastructure
The drastic reduction in indirect costs is not a path to innovation or cost savings — it’s a threat to U.S.’s position as global leader in medical research.

🚨BREAKING. From a program officer at the National Science Foundation, a list of keywords that can cause a grant to be pulled. I will be sharing screenshots of these keywords along with a decision tree. Please share widely. This is a crisis for academic freedom & science.
