The Trump administration will be the 3rd. It's not just budgets but research, institutions, expertise, and training the next generation.

- Please speak up now! This proposal will destroy science. NIH program officers are the unsung heroes of medical research. Their deep expertise and behind-the-scenes leadership have guided the field for decades, helping to drive the breakthroughs that improve and save lives every day.
- 🚨 A new rule would let career scientists like NSF/NIH program officers be replaced by political appointees Already 14,000+ public comments, deadline is Friday 📣 Comments can be short. Courts consider them—and scientists with NSF/NIH experience are especially impactful Speak up! shorturl.at/WKuBj

- This is deeply flawed. One example- our understanding of antibody function in vivo is in very early stages. AI cannot predict outcomes without good foundational data. Basic research is essential to generate the knowledge base and every discovery still requires validation in diverse human cohorts.
