Are you funded by #NIH, #NSF or #CDC? Please post any letters or communications you’ve received from these agencies or HHS about restrictions on grant funding, publications etc. I want to catalog all of them for the record. #medsky #episky

How bad will it be? Catastrophic. Proposed cuts to #NSF, #NIH, and #NASA will set the US R&D landscape back 25 yrs+, cause economic and job loss now, and undermine innovations to come. But, this is the WH's *proposed* budget. Speak up now before it is too late. (inflation adjusted $-s below)
NSF, NASA and NIH budgets per year, inflation adjusted from 2000-2025 along with the proposed cuts. NSF includes research component only. Massive cuts across all sectors, well below support spanning 25 years.

It's not just #NIH. It's not just #NSF. It's not just #NASA. The whole scientific community has to make clear that all science across fed agencies is being destroyed in the US. We can't just ask for our particular piece of the pie. The whole pie is being thrown out - saving your bit won't work.

When we take measures to address the racial bias that has allowed whites to enjoy privilege, they call our survival mechanisms 'racial bias.' Pure hypocrisy. www.science.org/content/a…. #saveNSF #NSF
NSF’s grant cuts fall heaviest on scientists from underrepresented groups

NSF’s grant cuts fall heaviest on scientists from underrepresented groups

Projects to broaden participation were cut disproportionately—and were often led by Black scientists, women, and those with disabilities

UPDATE: We have data on >1000 terminated #NSF grants at grant-watch.us. Thanks to all who have been contributing data the past few days. We've also added a "Reports" section with some analyses. For NSF, we see that the STEM education directorate has been absolutely pummeled.
Screenshot of table showing number of grants and total value terminated by NSF directorate. STEM Education directorate is highlighted, with 417 terminations totaling 322 million dollars.

CSV of table:
Directorate,No. Terminated,Total Value
Biological Sciences,46,"$27,960,075"
Computer and Information Science and Engineering,85,"$44,630,113"
Engineering,94,"$33,472,485"
Geosciences,52,"$36,454,740"
Mathematical and Physical Sciences,30,"$6,418,312"
Office of the Director,7,"$4,859,738"

For #NSF and #NIH watchers, Grant Witness now has interactive data on numbers of grants and total funding obligations, broken down by institute and directorate, new awards and non-competitive renewals. The stranglehold on new awards is still a disaster. grant-witness.us/funding_curv...

Linepithema tsachila ants drink from an Inga nectary in Ecuador. I described and named this species with funding from the National Science Foundation. #NSF #Ants #Science
