This is part of their plan & precisely parallels the Trump’s administration’s refusal to award NIH grants to colleges/universities that they dislike. The Washington Post reported on grant award refusal on Tues June 3rd. See link in image from BlueSky post…

Finding differences between male & female brains by eye is impossible — it’s like looking at the outside of two computers and trying to figure out what’s inside. The difference is how males & females are wired and programmed (usually during development & growth).

NIH hasn’t paid any of their bills on current grants (biweekly invoices) from Northwestern, Brown, etc for over a month…which just increases the amount of money can claw out of this and future NIH budgets as ā€œunspentā€, ā€œsurplusā€ and ā€œnot neededā€.
