NIH scientists speak out over ...

Word from an NIH program officer: There are zero grants being funded that have an international subaward.

International collaborations are currently not being allowed by NIH.

Any grant you developed with an international group, you have to cut that collaboration out, and show you can do it without them, to get the grant award.

You're given a choice between backstabbing your international collaborators, or going broke.

He's making us all into mafiosi. 😡

Analysis of Research Grant Terminations at the National Institutes of Health

Between late February and early April 2025, the National Institutes of Health (NIH) executed an unprecedented wave of grant terminations, impacting a total of 694 active grants. These cancellations

Holy smokes. $1.8 *billion* cut from NIH research, from terminating 694 grants, at the end of April. This is before the upcoming cuts they want in the budget for next year, or the money not yet spent this year!
(Or, why the $500 million that Europe is pulling together just makes me cry.)

The deets are here --I think it's open access? I had to poke around to see it all. #science #saveNIH

Half a billion dollars. That sounds like a lot, until you realize the NIH alone supported **$30 billion** in funding for research last year before Trump got his mitts on it.

Half a billion is better than the zero we are looking at, but it's a bandage on a bloodbath. 😭 #saveNIH
