It’s about time! But where are #Pennsylvania (@fetterman.senate.gov) and #Virginia (@kaine.senate.gov)? With over $1B in economic activity at stake, they should be in this fight too!! #ScienceMatters #Politics #USPol #ResearchSky

Government isn't a business. The goal isn't to save money. Success isn't measured by budget surplus.
The goal is to spend money, investing in society. Every dollar spent on education, healthcare, and science is an investment in our collective wellbeing.

This is the most relevant article to NIH and research cuts I’ve seen.
Imagine if this was today , how many people would be saying “Why are we studying Gila Monsters and their impact on diabetes ? That’s wasted money !”

The illegal cut of NIH indirect costs will mean $19M cut to @uconn.bsky.social alone, and $130M cut for Yale @blumenthal.senate.gov @chrismurphyct.bsky.social. A huge hit to our Universities like this will mean fewer opportunities for our students, fewer jobs for people in CT, and less research.
Helpful table to determine how much your University or health system is set to lose if the NIH indirect cap is suddenly lowered to 15%. For SJSU it is $374k which is on the smaller end but devastating considering our other budget issues. datawrapper.dwcdn.net/l0ZqA/8/
Estimated Single Year Loss of NIH Funding if 15% Indirect Cost Rate is Imposed
Based on analysis of 2024 NIH funding data. Sums are totals of losses in funding to programs if indirect costs had been capped at 15%

The illegal cut of NIH indirect costs will mean at least $115M cut to University of Pittsburgh @fetterman.senate.gov @davemccormick.bsky.social. This means huge loss of middle and working class jobs and research trials for breakthrough treatments for residents of Pennsylvania, Ohio, & West Virginia

Indirect Costs at NIH . . .
I wasn’t planning on spending part of a Saturday writing about cost accounting principles and the like, but NIH-world was hit with a doozy of a policy announcement on Friday night:

This framing is their framing, and NYT took the bait. The correct and accurate framing is: “Deep cuts to medical research threatens progress on cancer and heart disease research, costs the economy $80B, and threatens 300,000 jobs across red and blue states”
