The Trump admin has cancelled the panels that approve NIH grants, and is also banning scientists from communicating with the public, attending conferences, and hiring.

The NIH is the largest public funder of biomedical research in the world. This will severely halt the development of many lifesaving treatments. Absolutely devastating.

@luckytran - now is the time for European leaders to invest, offering these shunned, ostracised and persecuted scientists safe haven in Europe. Securing and building up expertise for the coming half century.
Like the US sucked up German scientists during Nazi times.
The analogy is really not so difficult to grasp.
In the face of wrong, do what's right.
