Trump’s Deadly Cuts to Medical Research
In this episode of the Bill Press Pod, Bill discusses the alarming cuts to medical and scientific research imposed by the Trump administration. Over 1,300 NIH research grants and over 150 clinical trials, including those on critical diseases like HIV, cancer, and chronic diseases, have been canceled or delayed. Colette Delawalla, founder of Stand Up for Science, talks about the detrimental impact of these cuts on the U.S.'s global leadership in science and the brain drain of scientists to other countries. Additionally, data reporter Irena Hwang from The New York Times provides insight into the extent and reasons behind these cuts, revealing that keywords linked to DEI initiatives were a significant factor in the grant cancellations. The episode highlights the far-reaching consequences for public health and scientific progress. Gift Link to the New York Times article: bit.ly/44pTQk6
