Mourning the loss of those who were RIF’d back in April. Our colleagues at NIH and across HHS are getting their official separation notices. These are friends and family members who were vital to the HHS mission being kicked to the curb. Please keep them in your thoughts.

It’s been a super hard day for NIH.
NEW: In an unprecedented move, the NIH will soon disinvite dozens of scientists about to take positions on advisory councils that make final decisions on grant funding.
NIH staff were told to select others aligned with the Trump administration and told to expect placements by political appointees.

Exclusive: NIH to dismiss dozens of grant reviewers to align with Trump priorities
The move would undo years of work, leaving advisory councils understaffed, and without the full expertise needed for reviews.
