Massive NIH cuts to research infrastructure threaten the foundation of U.S. research—putting our future at risk. We need innovation in funding, not dismantling our research engine. My take in @statnews: www.statnews.com/2025/02/08/n...
The NIH’s drastic cut to indirect cost rates is a critical threat to U.S. research infrastructure
The drastic reduction in indirect costs is not a path to innovation or cost savings — it’s a threat to U.S.’s position as global leader in medical research.

Opinion | I’m a health researcher. NIH’s pause on research grants could have a devastating cost.
This is a potentially devastating event — not just for the scientific community, but for all Americans.

All NIH study sections canceled indefinitely. This will halt science and devastate research budgets in universities.
