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.

82% of human protein-coding genes now have robust, consistent functional annotations, thanks to the combined efforts of biocurators across the GO consortium, Model Organism Databases, SwissProt/UniProtKB, all based on explicit evolutionary modeling via PANTHER families!

Since April, we have been busy curating pathways using GO-CAM pathway modelling. So far, 466 proteins (33 pathways) have been modelled. We have modelled signalling pathways, metabolic pathways, and other processes. The full list is here: www.pombase.org/documentatio..., and will increase weekly!
