My first funding curve post for Fiscal Year 2026 FY2026 is off to a slow start. Some of this is due to the government shut down, but some of it is likely due to the new process for "remediating" applications that are deemed not to align with "agency priorities".
Funding curve for NIH for fiscal years 2015-2026 showing the fiscal year 2026 curve (in red) well below the fraction of the annual appropriation for previous years.

A commonly held belief is that the brain keeps maturing until age 25 and then stops, meaning that we should limit substance use until this timepoint. A new AJDAA paper dispels that myth and provides implications for #Cannabis use policy. Read it here: www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10....
