📢 Cautious optimism for #NIH: A House subcommittee advanced a FY26 bill with $46.9B for NIH, slightly above current levels and far better than the 40% cut proposed earlier. The full #House and #Senate must still agree, and a CR may be needed to avoid a shutdown on Sept. 30. #epilepsyresearch

Do you or a loved one experience epileptic seizures lasting over than 3 minutes? The STARS Study is a global clinical study testing an investigational inhaler that may help stop a prolonged seizure after it starts.
