A very clear video of the societal impact of dismantling NIH and NSF. However, I would not be that US centered. These new breakthroughs may still happen, but the patents won’t be in the US, they will be own by China, EU or any other country, in some cases by scientists that were in the US…
"This could be the difference whether your child gets cancer. Are you willing for them to die because the therapy for them is delayed?"
Powerful video with voices from top US scientists on the very real and devastating impacts of the funding cuts.

Rajae’s latest work from our lab adds new light on the neuroendocrine mechanisms by which Kiss1 neurons control energy balance🚨
Dropping our latest preprint 🚨 We show that arcuate Kiss1 neurons act as melanocortin sensitive regulators of BAT thermogenesis through a glutamate dependent Leptr/CART pathway from the DMH to the RPa. @victor-navarro.bsky.social
Melanocortin-responsive Kiss1 neurons of the arcuate nucleus drive energy expenditure through glutamatergic signaling to the dorsomedial hypothalamus. https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2025.06.25.661567v1

Europe’s choice is clear.
To put science at the heart of its economy.
To become the home of scientific freedom and collaboration.
And to welcome talent from all over the world.

While this stand on values and principles at Harvard is needed, it makes the freeze (or termination) of the $9B in federal funding more likely, with the consequences that that would have all of us doing science within the Harvard community. We can only hope for the best.
