More than scientists, because if labs close this will lead to losses in jobs that support R&D nationally. Our #SCIMaP analysis estimates that FY26 NIH cuts alone will lead to $46B in economic losses and 202K lost jobs in communities throughout the US. scienceimpacts.org/fy26

The scale of funding cuts in the United States means that countless scientists will lose their jobs. It would be naive not to start thinking about alternative career paths go.nature.com/4kibeMv
