My heart goes out to all my colleagues Columbia University that, through no fault of their own, are suddenly facing a funding cliff where research will stop and people will be fired.

Andrew D. Huberman, Ph.D. NIH CDC I did not lose faith in NIH or @CDC. I am losing faith in a government that would deliberately undermine them without adequate understanding and with little thought to how that injures us all.

Andrew D. Huberman, Ph.D. NIH CDC The country as a whole needs improved scientific literacy and media literacy. The comment section bears this out. People calling for things that are 1. Already done (like tracking AEs), or 2. That are just laughable from a scientific standpoint.

To see two kids die of measles in the US is unconscionable. If I am RFK jr, I will resign in shame immediately or take strong action to prevent further deaths, at a minimum.

Glad to hear that Harvard, my Alma Mater, stood up to the Federal Government in defense of academic freedoms. It’s a start, but at least their latest declaration aligns with the school’s Latin motto for Truth: “Veritas”. Perhaps other institutions will follow.

I am glad to hear that but let’s hope that NIH will remain the crown jewel of US biomedical sciences in a few years time. So far it’s looking rather grim - deep funding cuts being pushed by Trump admin and a demoralized scientific workforce that sees only dark clouds.
