“USAID-backed studies have been shuttered, data streams have dried up, researchers and technical staff have been fired or put on leave, a system to predict food crises has been muzzled, and a USAID-supported global health journal has stopped reviewing manuscripts.” From our @science.org news team 🧪

The National Institutes of Health plans to severely cut the percentage of its grant money that can be used for overhead costs rather than research.
NIH slashes overhead payments for research, sparking outrage
Move to cut indirect cost rate to 15% could cost universities billions of dollars

Musk slashes ‘overhead’!” Teaching and research infrastructure cost money. Cuts impact US science. Likely staff will be fired. Destruction is easy, building successful institutions is challenging. Successful enterprises including TESLA build on 100s of years of science. An America LAST strategy?
