How are folks handling this change in NIH open access policies? Submitting to journals that comply with the new NIH policy for immediate release without requiring an open access fee?

Stephanie M. Lee@stephaniemlee.bsky.social · last yr.

NEW: The NIH just started requiring NIH-funded research to be made freely, immediately available. In response, some journals are forcing scientists to pay thousands in open-access fees to publish. The result: chaos. The fees, one scholar says, are “out of control.” www.chronicle.com/article/maki...

Strange trend for researchers to be aware of: participants are using Chat GPT to respond to open-ended questions at the end of surveys. Be sure to look for common indicators of GenAI before coding qualitative data (e.g., numbered lists, double asterisks, etc.)

Looking at grant reporter, it seems like the NIMH is focusing on issuing NOAs for grant renewals. In August, they issued 393 NOAs, of which only 23 were for new projects Total NOAs: reporter.nih.gov/search/-raDb... NOAs for new projects: reporter.nih.gov/search/9PUrD...

The House discretionary budget bill is now out for FY26, including a proposed *slight boost* in NIH funding & many other components that will take time to unpack. Bill text: appropriations.house.gov/sites/evo-su... A few key points including IDC analysis in a provisional 🧵

House LHHC bill is out. Lots of hits to HHS, but the top line number for NIH is 1% decrease, mostly due to cuts ARPA-H. This seems like a huge rejection of the president's budget request.

If this is turning into a battle, then the researchers’ possible counter is to normalize updating preprints and CVs with “accepted at journal x” as sufficient for getting publication credit and not pay the fees.

TL;DR: 5 justices say Trump doesn't have to immediately restore the funding, but 5 *also* signal that the underlying directives are unlawful. That sends a fairly strong (if mixed) message that Trump will lose these cases *eventually,* but only once they're brought in the Court of Federal Claims.

Steve Vladeck@stevevladeck.bsky.social · last yr.

Splitting 5-4 (with Chief Justice Roberts joining the three Democratic appointees in dissent), #SCOTUS grants *partial* stay to Trump administration in NIH funding case; holds that challenges to grant terminations (but *not* the underlying guidance) need to be filed in the Court of Federal Claims:

A helpful explainer from @stevevladeck.bsky.social ⤵️ Steve finds some positives here bc Barrett signaled that plaintiffs might win in the Court of Federal Claims (CFC). But you can't just pause research for so many months & restart it after you win in the CFC. The research is effectively gone.

Trisha Clark@tcinindy.bsky.social · last yr.

Any idea when the information will be available to the public? Asking for those working to submit #NIH applications for the Oct/Nov dates. Of course, it’ll likely have an effect on current grants too. But wondering if we need to advise of any new changes to make for upcoming proposals. #RAdminsky

This is a VERY important read about the status of NIH funding & how funding works. Labs all over the country are feeling the effects of this policy change. Last year, 10% of grants got funded. The number will be reduced this year & beyond. 🧵 🧪 scienceandfreedomalliance.substack.com/p/a-quiet-po...
