There are 2 previous historical cases of countries destroying their science and universities, crippling them for decades: Lysenkoism in the USSR and Nazi Germany. The Trump administration will be the 3rd.
It's not just budgets but research, institutions, expertise, and training the next generation.

Let me speak to the DOGE audit language. Many people who work in both the Treasury and specifically the IRS are CPAs. Most audit firms hire CPAs. A 19yo coder has absolutely no idea how to accurately identify waste or fraud. Calling what DOGE is doing as a audit, is a flat out lie.

NIH was one of the best places to work. Hard to believe just how quickly it is being dismantled. The repurcussions on science and public health will be felt for decades.
Thanks to all of the NIHers and their friends who reached out to me. I am still here (DM me or Signal jeremymberg.78)

I still have a very incomplete picture but based on what I have been told, the damage to NIH and to many wonderful people who work(ed) there is/was impossible for me to imagine

Indirect costs from NIH grants also help support projects and programs that directly benefit all sorts of folks.

Take med schools and hospitals. Many people that I know, including folks in the trades, have recently had a long wait to access health care. We have a MD shortage… 1/
Don't you have working class & poverty class folks in your family?? Maybe focus group some of yer talking points for half a second instead of showing up to a knife fight with a pippetter.

1. Today the NIH director issued a new directive slashing overhead rates to 15%.

I want to provide some context on what that means and why it matters.

Despite NSF's funding *mandate* to broaden participation in STEM, we have officially made it impossible to conduct research in any field via NSF funding.
🚨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.
