UPDATED: A federal judge has halted the NIH cuts...

but ONLY in the 22 states that joined the lawsuit.

Plaintiffs argued that the NIH move was illegal and usurps Congress' authority.

A second lawsuit seeks to halt the order nationwide. More from @statnews.com:

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.

NIH Office of Research On Women's Health. At top: Putting science to work for the health of women. Just below that: Page not found. The link: dead. I guess....improving the health of women is...no longer a priority. Or, even allowed?

My NIH study section that was to meet tomorrow was one of those canceled. This represents many months of work by the applicants and by the NIH staff and reviewers. Devastating is the correct word.
All NIH study sections canceled indefinitely. This will halt science and devastate research budgets in universities.

The rapid growth of private equity in health care has attracted widespread attention & concern

Our new @jama.com study finds that when private equity takes over a hospital, patients' care experience significantly worsens.
