I suspect this is also true for music-based intervention applications. Certainly, there is an opportunity for investigation.

DOGE says they are saving 4 billion, but...

➡️ Every dollar in NIH research grants generates $2.46 in economic activity ($93 billion in 2023!)
➡️ The $1.7 trillion US biotech industry depends on public-funded science
➡️ Both of those fund a $57 billion US market for scientific tools and equipment
America will pay dearly for the NIH’s mindless war on wokeness and DEI
Colleges, businesses, patients, students, workers, and US excellence will all suffer—and for what?
