Despite court order, NIH grants remain frozen. Newly awarded grants, grants with fundable scores, & funds for a new budget cycle of a current project are all *FROZEN*🥶 and not being released. US research is being choked to death & is on life support right now www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

Presently, an estimated 60-70 million Americans are suffering from GI diseases. That is why consistent and sustainable funding from NIH is necessary to support innovative research and treatment development. Please take a minute to tell Congress to stop NIH cuts! gastro.quorum.us/campaign/109928

I keep thinking about the campaign slogan "We Are Not Going Back," which I didn't like....but it turned out to be prescient. As in Orwellian 1984. A tough road ahead to get us back on track. But we will. #standupforscience2025

Yup - that was me!

BREAKING The Trump administration is maintaining a funding freeze at the National Institutes of Health (NIH) in defiance of two federal court orders. The ongoing freeze was confirmed by an NIH official and internal correspondence reviewed by Popular Information.
