Researchers can fight these attacks by spreading insights into how fed funded research works, and sharing how we serve the public with the fed dollars we work hard to earn. Write an op-ed for your local hometown paper to be published June 16!

NIH is ending billions of dollars in foreign subawards, jeopardizing thousands of projects on infectious diseases, cancer and more. Unless foreign researchers secure funding directly from NIH by October — a tall order for any researcher — clinical trials abroad and other research will shut down.

This is yet another abuse of power by the administration — this time in response to Harvard not capitulating to the administration’s earlier unlawful demands. We have to speak out and stand up for our universities.

The real problem about science isn't about loss of trust. It's about not having a voice, a counter.

Whai if the 300,000 scientists supported by NIH stood up? Or even half of them. Instead of <1%

Science’s big problem is a loss of influence, not a loss of trust
Evidence shows that science and scientists remain highly trusted. But genuine scientific voices are not shouting loud enough over the noise to hold sway.

“It has become clear that truth and transparency are not desired by the secretary, but rather he wishes subservient confirmation of his misinformation and lies," Marks said. "This man doesn’t care about the truth. He cares about what is making him followers.”

👍for the UTI Wikiguidelines, especially for prevention of recurrent UTI. Agree that topical estrogen and methenamine can be quite helpful. Need more data on methenamine safety in people with renal dysfunction, spectrum of activity, and need for urine acidification.
