Shutting down medical research — not just within NIH, but everywhere that’s funded by NIH — will have long-term effects on medicine & short-term effects on state, higher education & hospital budgets. This affects all of us, not just researchers.
The assault on NIH is a test for how the national media covers the Trump admin: Trump is shutting down medical research!

That is easy to communicate. Will they treat it as a 5 alarm fire in a way that forces the government to respond, or will they downplay & caveat it?

Did u know? If you find a rotting apple in your food purchases, don't bin it, put it out for birds. They'll love to eat its sweet, nutritious flesh & it'll provide essential moisture when water is frozen. Look at the peck marks after being put outside for only 10 minutes. 🤗🐦‍⬛🌍
