New Trump policy changes how NIH funds grants. By committing multi-year money upfront, fewer new awards will be available, making competition tougher for researchers. Read the full Forbes analysis: www.forbes.com/sites/brucel...
How New Trump Multiyear Policy Makes NIH Grants Even Harder To Get
The new Trump administration multiyear funding policy for NIH grants has dropped National Cancer Institute grant funding rates from one in 10 applicants to one in 25.

78% use AI, but few see big gains. CEO-led AI, workflow redesign, and risk management drive real impact. Scaling still the missing link.

Or be more like Canadians and a Japanese society who citizens have less guns and have better legislation. Sadly in the USA the Dickey Amendment says “none of the funds made available for injury prevention and control at the CDC may be used to advocate or promote gun control.” Science is muzzled
Two more families lives ruined by idiots with guns. One of the four cardinal rules of firearm safety is, “know your target and what is behind it.“. I wonder if we would actually be a safer country if everyone learned firearm safety in public schools. www.nytimes.com/2025/11/06/u...
