I'm having a hard time wrapping my head around what #IndirectCosts for #NIHGrants are.
If it includes large pieces of equipment essential to safe and proper lab function = DEVASTATION! Medical research requires expensive equipment to be viable and safe. You can't do this stuff out of a garage!

The NIH funding cap on indirect costs will eviscerate scientific research from the inside.
Universities won’t be able to support researchers, biomedical progress will slow, & YOUR health will be harmed.
Plus, widespread economic collapse.

The NIH indirect cost caps will kneecap biomedical research–and everyone will pay the price
This reckless policy will gut scientific innovation, drive researchers out of the US, devastate healthcare, and cause economic collapse.

The attack on research continues, reducing IDC to 15% for DOE. Of course, announced after hours on a Friday. Trump’s war on “woke” universities is unraveling decades of a successful partnership.

📢 美国国立卫生研究院（以下简称NIH）于周五晚间发布公告，宣布将大幅削减对科研项目“间接成本（indirectcosts）”的拨款。所谓间接成本，与实验材料费、差旅费等不同，是由诸多项目共享并且没有明确的归属，但在日常运转和项目执行中必不可少的费用，例如水电费、实验室房租、行政管理人员薪酬等。...

Our institute spends $60,000 per year on pipette calibration. Labs worldwide rely on small volume precision to ensure research in, say, medical diagnostics and treatment, is done accurately and reproducibly. These crucial pipette calibrations are paid by the #indirectcosts of doing science.

10/14 Grant approvals would prioritize institutions with "demonstrated success" in implementing the gold-standard science plan and those with lower "indirect costs."
These costs pay for lab electricity, administrative staff, and basic infrastructure.

Funding for science is front-page news, with the #NIH announcing cuts to indirect costs. Unfortunately named, indirect costs may not sound important. But these funds are the foundation of a system that made the US a global leader in science, as explained in this animation:

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.
