With the VERY STRONG disclaimer that much of the ID costs are already paid out on many of these grants because funding has already started but I can't account for that easily, here's a list for all the NIH grants I could pull from its site, with ID adjusted to 15%.

If you're curious what the potential impact to your local area is from the NIH cuts I've added a summary tab by congressional district.

Again, the numbers are based on full year/program cuts and some may already be paid, but it tells a tale.

Added a party column to the congressional district breakdown. If the data is accurate the split is 85% in districts represented by a Democrat in congress. 🤯

Thanks, Seth. I’ve been leaning on my state reps to have a contingency plan for this and this data will really help.

Could you add MA to state list? I think I don’t see it (and imagine it should be pretty high)

wandrme.paxex.aero•33 days ago

Sorry about that; must've missed it when I was doing the initial data dump from the NIH. It is in there now and is third highest impact.

What kills me is I am an expat from PA, who moved here after college for an educated job. If those jobs leave, I have to also. I don't want to. I love NH.

wandrme.paxex.aero•32 days ago

My concern is that when those jobs leave they're going to simply disappear, not migrate elsewhere.

The plan is to slash and burn, and so far they're getting away with it.

malodiewx.bsky.social•32 days ago

Also that. I mean, I already had to start working for a MA based company.

Another site to search that may be easier Search for grant impact by state (2023 data) https://www.unitedformedicalresearch.org/nih-in-your-...

If the funding really does go away, the brain drain will be be something else. We’re already missing out on potential superstars choosing to go not to come to the US because the anti-immigrant rhetoric is so bad.

Just wait until the Miscreant in Chief cancels Biden's infrastructure program! People will start losing jobs, bills go unpaid, homeowners default on mortgages, yadah, yadah, yadah... Mark my prediction dated 2/7/2025. The economy is going to take a nosedive, just sayin. 🤷‍♀️ Thanks MAGAT voters! 🤬

Also, the big research schools will raise tuition, fire staff, reduce phd/post doc stipends. That’s UNH and Dartmouth for sure, not sure the state of research at other schools around the state. That’s assuming DOE remains intact. Higher Ed will not survive this for long.

wandrme.paxex.aero•33 days ago

UNH was already facing a $15-20mm deficit. This is just fuel on that fire.

And I cannot imagine Ayotte will say anything useful about fighting this next week when presenting the budget.

jmccoffeee.bsky.social•33 days ago

I just read that - bad news all around. Tangentially related, student visas are likely to only get slower/fewer, and they’re already at about a year lead time, which also impacts budgets in a big way.
