"Trump Is Shutting Down the War On Cancer."
https://www.nytimes.com/2025/09/14/magazine/cancer-research-grants-funds-trump.html

"The Trump administration has canceled hundreds of millions of dollars in cancer-related research grants and contracts,…and suspended or delayed payments for hundreds of millions more. It is trying to sharply reduce the percentage of expenses that the government will cover for federally funded cancer-research labs. It has terminated hundreds of government employees who helped lead the country’s cancer-research system…And the president’s proposed budget for the next fiscal year calls for a more-than-37% cut to the National Cancer Institute [#NCI]."

"The National Cancer Institute [#NCI], the Bethesda-based research center that has helped drive a more than 30% decline in U.S. cancer deaths since 1991, is being targeted by Trump administration’s downsizing…Research grants are also being cut at what scientists describe as unprecedented levels."

The National Cancer Institute faces steep budget cuts and a staff exodus | WAMU

Current and former employees report that morale has "tanked" as the administration hollows out the agency, with many scientists leaving in frustration. The cuts are already impacting basic operations at the institute.
