Congress recently passed FY25 funding at mostly flat levels for science, with language preventing capped indirect costs at NIH. Advocacy played a role. The coming months are critical to ensure funds are fully spent as attention turns to FY26. AAAS CEO Sudip Parikh on the President's Budget Request ⤵️

If the NIH gets messed up, there is no alternative. Not just in the US, but globally. It is by far the biggest engine of health research in the world. Which is why the idea that US scientists can just do their work elsewhere is a little fanciful.

New report shows that NIH grants fueled $95 billion in economic activity and 407,782 jobs in 2024.
That's not to mention the countless lives that biomedical research has saved.
