A 2023 study found that NIH grants supported the research behind 99.4% of all new pharmaceuticals approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in the 2010s. Yes, our health & quality of life depends on the NIH. Read why: americanscientist.org/articl…“why-are-we-funding-this”

Why leave money for medical research UNUSED when people are still waiting for cures??? aamc.org/about-us/mission-ar…

Clinical trials and research training stalled as billions in NIH funds sit idle | AAMC

Billions in NIH research funds remain unspent, stalling clinical trials, halting grants, and disrupting training for future scientists.

My lab is hiring multiple PhD students and postdoctoral fellows. If you are in Canada and interested in neuroscience, regenerative medicine and stem cells, contact me. We are a productive group working on pathogenesis and treatment of multiple sclerosis. lnkd.in/eD3fkrp4is

Absolutely unbelievable: the sitting HHS Secretary tried to pressure the Annals of Internal Medicine to retract the major Danish study of 1.2 M kids that found no harm from aluminum in vaccines. The journal refused. This isn’t just anti-science it is political interference.

The US and Germany share the same DNA. We are partners. We are friends. We are literally family. Many citizens here in the US have ancestors hailing from Germany. I just gave @POTUS a copy of his grandfather’s birth certificate. He was born in Kallstadt, Germany, in 1869.

Man comes to the US from Lebanon. Starts out delivering pizzas, becomes a Nobel winning neuroscientist. Trump freezes his funding, he gets an email from China offering to move his lab “any city, any university I want" with guaranteed funding for 20 years. What are we doing?

This budget proposes to cut the NIH by nearly half, a 40% reduction. The NIH has been responsible for an extraordinary number of lifesaving cures and has been an economic power engine unitedformedicalresearch.org… Ask Congress to save science. #FundingScienceSavesLives
