🍂 🧪 States hardest hit by NIH grant terminations are WA and NC

submitted 16 days ago • 1 comment

If your NC vote has been challenged, the appeals court has triggered a 15-day "curing" period. It is imperative that you contact your local Board of Elections or legal representation for the next steps. The NC GOP is openly trying to steal their state's Supreme Court. Do not let them.

Neuropeeps! Is there a list somewhere of the intramural neuroscience researchers @ NIH who have lost their jobs? If not, could you reply to this thread or hit me up on Signal (tverstynen.64) if you happen to know of specific people? Please boost if you don’t mind.

BREAKING: We're suing the National Institutes of Health over their politically-motivated purge of research grants. This is an unlawful attack on scientific progress that puts lives at risk.

"The memo suggests that (...) HHS has directed NIH to quickly terminate 945 specific grants—only some of which are in South Africa. Multiple researchers have told Science that their grants related to LGBT health inside the United States were also terminated today." Nine hundred and forty-five.

Circulate this widely! We need to know which NIH grants have been terminated. It goes beyond the list that HHS has released. Send to every scientist you know. @scott-delaney.bsky.social @noamross.net

It’s been a brutal past 24 hours as many NIH funded grants that my colleagues or me are involved in have been terminated across several institutions.

Interested in what NIH grants have been cancelled to date? You can see award numbers, institutions and titles here. Not sure how often this list is being updated but seems to reflect only those that have received "official" notices from NIH (some of us haven't yet) taggs.hhs.gov/Content/Data...

On changes to #NIH indirect rates, there is a law in place that prohibits NIH from making such changes without the approval of Congress. See Division D, Title II Section 224 of The Further Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2024 (Public Law No: 118-47) grants.nih.gov/grants/guide...
