These proposed benefit cuts are dangerous and are only going to make things worse.

Yesterday I wrote about how Trump's "flagged" word list might block all of epidemiology, and some people complained discussing this was a distraction from bigger issues.
But I think they're wrong. I think inclusiveness is fundamental to epidemiology, and without it we are dramatically limited.

Devastating for scientists and their research, and everyone who benefits from that research.
I’m not sure if everyone outside academia is aware that a delay or “pause” in grant funding often means the researchers themselves are lost from the field, along with their expertise.

NIH appears to have canceled/postponed all of its study sections—the independent review panels that approve federal grants for health research.
Such grants fund the work/salaries of 300k people at more than 2,500 institutions

All NIH study sections canceled indefinitely. This will halt science and devastate research budgets in universities.
