Trump halts medical research funding in apparent violation of judge’s order

Summary

78% Informative

NIH has stopped submitting study sections meetings in which scientists peer review NIH grant funding proposals to the Federal Register .

By law, study sections must appear on the register 15 days in advance of meetings.

This is a clear violation of federal judges’ orders, according to a law professor.

A scientist who was supposed to attend a postponed study section as a reviewer also had trouble making sense of these actions.

If the meetings are ever rescheduled, reviewers will either have forgotten details of the proposals they reviewed or have to spend extra time reviewing them again.

The NIH press office did not respond to a request for comment in time to be included in the story.
