NIH indirect costs fund the backbone of research: maintaining labs, ensuring safety, and supporting admin work. These are essential for groundbreaking discoveries. Drastic cuts to NIH indirect rates are detrimental to academic biomedical research.

To be clear these jobs benefit not just the holder but all Americans. NIH funds train people in how to make discoveries to fight diseases such as cancer. Most of them then go to companies to continue the work. Taxpayer money should be spent to benefit all; here it certainly is.

1/ After residency at Mass General Hospital, I reported to Atlanta to meet my fellow CDC Epidemic Intelligence Service Officers. I have never felt so intimidated by my peers The best and the brightest, they were star clinicians, had served in disaster zones; MD/PhDs and MSF.

One falsehood folks spread is that vaccines haven't been tested against placebo Not true For example, HPV vaccines have nearly eliminated cervical cancer in vaccinated populations And here's one of many studies comparing it against placebo nejm.org/doi/full/10.10…

AIMBE is looking for biomedical researchers to share how recent policies have disrupted their grants/work: aimbe.wufoo.com/forms/qs9tsin1… Your personal anecdotes help us convey to Members of Congress the devastating impact of these changes. Your responses can remain anonymous.

A large portion of grants awarded by the U.S. National Institutes of Health cannot be funded for the foreseeable future because of an indefinite hold on submissions to the Federal Register, according to an email reviewed by The Transmitter. By Angie Voyles Askham thetransmitter.org/funding/federa…

It's clear that many do not understand what NIH-funded research does to improve health. It's time to revive a study published 10 years ago that provides incredible information about this. link in the comment Every single new drug approved by the FDA from 2010–2016 was built on

All NIH summer internship programs across all institutes cancelled 😡 Cutting into our future workforce- Our future Nobel prize winners! Elon Musk How does this help American competitiveness?

Our NIH grant to discover coronavirus antiviral meds was terminated today. With this grant, we had developed a better SARSCoV2 inhibitor than Paxlovid, and we recently discovered an improved drug that looks better than Pfizer's own second-generation inhibitor.

Honored to be elected an AAAS fellow. I've been very fortunate to work with a great team at UC San Diego. Funding from NIH has led to our work being translated to patients. Hoping this critical funding can continue so we can further impact patient lives.

I'm thrilled to share our latest research, just published in npj Regenerative Medicine. This study explores age-related changes in extracellular adenosine and how local adenosine delivery can promote in situ bone healing. link.springer.com/article/10.103…

This is the impact the recent cuts in federal funding have on biomedical research and human health. A new heart pump to save sick babies, which took 20+ year to develop, will be stopped short off helping patients, and the researchers fear for their jobs. news.cornell.edu/stories/2025/0…
