A great explanation of the NIH MOSAIC program, why it was terminated, and what's happening to the early career investigators who relied on it. A clear and engaging read for scientists and non-scientists alike #nihmosaic #earlycareer #saveourfunding

The fiscal year is over.
So how was the NIH appropriation committed?

Listed are some of the many NIH research training programs that were terminated! Together, these programs supported thousands of trainees, whose careers are now in limbo. Such a great loss for discovery and innovation. We must protect our next generation of scientists!

APHA Plaintiffs' counsel:
The record shows a "slapdash" decisionmaking process to terminate grants.
In one case, Matt Memoli at NIH took 6 minutes to review 6 grants to "review" and terminate them.
This is important bc it shows NIH didn't make a meaningful grant-by-grant review as req'd by law.
