Yesterday President Trump announced a pause on all federal grant disbursals. While it is a bit vague on details, it appears to include research grants. This would be devastating to American science. If you have not had a chance, call your Senators & Reps 🧪 www.cnn.com/2025/01/27/p...

The rapid actions of the Trump Administration to shut down all communication by NIH, thus putting both study sections and councils on hold, is challenging for all of us. We can make our voices known. Below is an example email I sent to both NC Senators (text in alt text) 1/2 🧪

Bipartisan support for NIH and biomedical research is key to retaining US leadership Dear Sen. Tillis, I am a constituent, a Professor at UNC-Chapel Hill and a biomedical researcher with 33 years of funding from NIH. You have been a strong supporter of NIH and biomedical research, recognizing the impact of the more than $2 billion in funding NIH brings to NC Universities and its broader economic impact. The US has led in biomedical research for many decades, yielding impressive improvements in treatment of cancer and heart disease, and stunning new opportunities to use gene therapy in diseases like Type 1 diabetes and sickle cell disease. In the last 10 years, China has massively increased investment in science, and is threatening our lead. To remain competitive, we need to continue our investment. The actions this week by the Trump Administration to shut down NIH study sections and pause funding sent shock waves through our community. We need to resume bipartisan support for NIH or lose a generation of scientists. I would like to connect with the aide in the Tillis office who handles HHS and NIH and have a conversation about these issues--please have them email me. Thank you for your past support Mark Peifer
