Manitoba may court U.S. scientists struggling with funding cuts, loss of academic freedom
Premier Wab Kinew says Manitoba is considering ways to roll out the welcome mat to U.S. academics who find themselves unable to conduct research due to funding cuts and a political climate hostile to science south of the border.

Colleges rely on federal research funding. Under Trump, its future is in doubt

The Trump administration has been using funding to seek compliance with his agenda, cutting off money to schools including Columbia University and the University of Pennsylvania. All the while, universities across the country are navigating cuts to grants for research institutions.

#Trump signs sweeping #ExecutiveOrder overhauling #US #elections

It’s designed to “cut down” on the number of immigrants in the country illegally who are supposedly on voter rolls & would “fully weaponize” DHS data to ensure such migrants aren’t casting ballots.

The action seeks to include a “citizenship question” on federal voting forms & reduce federal #election #funding to states that don’t take “reasonable steps” to secure their balloting.

Update. "#NIH Ends Future Funding to Study the #Health Effects of #Climate Change"
propublica.org/article/nih-fun

"The National Institutes of Health will no longer be funding work on the health effects of climate change, according to internal records reviewed by ProPublica…While it’s unclear whether the climate guidance will impact active grants and lead to funding terminations, the directive appears to halt opportunities for future funding of studies or academic programs focused on the health effects of climate change."

We ran a Reddit survey, and the results are shocking:

publishing scientific papers is prohibitively expensive.

💸 $3K – $7.5K for open access in reputable journals

🔥 Top journals (e.g., Nature) charge $9K+

🚫 Even mid-tier journals cost $2K – $4K

PhD students rely on lab grants, while independents pay out of pocket.

📚 Science is becoming pay-to-publish, blocking access to knowledge.

We need decentralized, affordable publishing.

Update. New study: "#NIH investment in drugs approved from 2010 to 2019 was not less than investment by the #pharmaceutical industry, with comparable accounting for basic and applied research, failed clinical trials, and cost of capital or discount rates."

PS: Relevant to (1) #Trump admin cutbacks to NIH #funding and (2) industry #patents and licensing terms on approved drugs.

Update. "What’s in store for US science as funding bill averts government shutdown"
nature.com/articles/d41586-025

"The US government averted a shutdown late last week after President Donald #Trump signed into law a spending agreement that is likely to lock in modest cuts to science funding this year. But a larger crisis for science still looms as the Trump administration and Republicans in Congress continue to seek massive cuts to the federal budget for 2025 and beyond."
