Of the 4000 researchers at NIH, only 20% are tenured. They’re going to fire all the rest as their contracts come up for renewal, absolutely decimating research at the NIH. This is catastrophic, not just for Americans, but for the whole world.

NIH ban on renewing senior scientists adds to assaults on its in-house research
Policy follows firings of tenure-track scientists and suspension of training programs

Today's Oval Office spectacle wasn't about showing strength, it was about surrendering to Putin. Trump and JD Vance have completely sold out America.

One of the people fired from NOAA today is the director of the Ocean Acidification Program. That program also leads the U.S. government's effort on marine carbon dioxide removal (mCDR). The destruction of American science is incomprehensible.

NOAA lost numerous extremely talented and committed scientist civil servants today. Their careers were committed to making all of our lives better: predicting weather and effects of climate change, monitoring and managing sustainable fisheries, and recovering endangered species. 🤬
