For decades, NIH has been the nation’s cornerstone of medical research, driving discoveries that have led to groundbreaking treatments, increased survival rates, and enhanced quality of life for patients. AACR will continue to urge Congress to support this critical institution.

The nation’s longstanding, bipartisan support of medical research is an investment in innovation that has saved, extended, and enhanced the lives of millions of Americans. We ask Congress to continue to support the NIH and sustain the pace of progress. votervoice.net/AACR/Campaigns…

Federally-funded biomedical research drives progress against a wide range of diseases—including cancer—and safeguards the nation’s health. It is critical that we all ask our representatives in Congress to support funding for NIH. votervoice.net/AACR/Campaigns…

Patients depend on a constant stream of new treatment options to help them stay ahead of their cancers. It is critical that we ask Congress to maintain that momentum by preserving the nation’s investment in innovation and fully funding NIH: votervoice.net/AACR/Campaigns…

AI and machine learning have the potential to transform cancer research and care. We thank the conference chairs for their efforts to showcase the full spectrum of possibilities and risks of these remarkable technologies.

Biomedical research is one of the most productive investments of federal funding, producing long-term economic benefits while improving public health. Please contact your representatives and ask them to reject the President’s FY26 budget and #FundNIH: votervoice.net/AACR/Campaigns…

The tumor-infiltrating lymphocyte (TIL) therapy that saved Jennifer’s life was pioneered at the National Cancer Institute. Please call on your representatives in Congress to continue their bipartisan investment in innovation by fully funding the NIH: votervoice.net/AACR/Campaigns…

The AACR is committed to training early-career scientists because they are the drivers of future discoveries—but that future depends on sustained federal funding. Please contact Congress and ask them to reject the President’s FY26 budget and #FundNIH: votervoice.net/AACR/Campaigns…

Any cuts to the NIH budget would stifle innovation and erode the nation's position as the global leader in biomedical research. I encourage all of our members and colleagues in the U.S. to ask their representatives to protect NIH funding: votervoice.net/AACR/Campaigns…

The President’s proposal to cut NIH funding by nearly 40% in FY2026 threatens to delay, pause, or cancel studies that advance the prevention, detection, and treatment of cancer. I encourage our colleagues in the U.S. to call on Congress to #FundNIH: votervoice.net/AACR/Campaigns…
