Honored to assist with this review, thank you for the acknowledgement!

All the more reason I am incensed that funding to study these phenomena is being cut. This doesn't help Americans, young and old.

It's already known that #colorectalcancer is on the rise, especially in younger people. How does cutting this funding benefit Americans? www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

This is crazy. How can you completely cut funding for two of the deadliest cancers?

Why should the public care about the freeze on the NIH? Aside from the need for scientific pursuits to make our society better…
-For every dollar we invest in NIH research, there is a $2.5 return.
-Research dollars help fund universities that employ non-academics. (1/)

They…turned off…National Institutes of Health grants? That’s nearly $50 billion of scientific research.
NIH appears to have canceled/postponed all of its study sections—the independent review panels that approve federal grants for health research.

Such grants fund the work/salaries of 300k people at more than 2,500 institutions
All NIH study sections canceled indefinitely. This will halt science and devastate research budgets in universities.
