Well the NIH has cancelled the Women's Health Initiative, the largest study of women in history

It has been running continuously since 1991 and has provided massive key knowledge about diseases in women

Read: OpenAI raised $40B—i.e., the entire NIH budget.
OpenAI announced that it closed one of the largest private funding rounds in history.

According to a blog post on the company’s website, OpenAI raised $40 billion in a round that values the company at $300 billion post-money.

reality of ML+bio research: real methodological innovation is rare, expert application is common. & that's okay! most progress comes from skillfully using existing tools. lets be honest abt contributions & stop repackaging established methods with domain expertise as "novel computational frameworks"
