These cuts will have effects that reverberate for years. The chaos itself disrupts the long-term planning needed for good science. And that’s different from the private sector.
My latest from inside NIH as well as universities that get its funding. I think it is important to say clearly what moves like this will actually do to people.

Productive science requires a great team, and that team develops together. That's one reason chaotic interference is dangerous for science.

These presentations are sometimes the only way people in detention find out details about the process they’re going through.
