Lots of folks felt that earthquake yesterday. Had it been stronger, there's a chance people might have fallen and gotten hurt. That's why we suggest people drop to the ground if possible -- an essential part of drop, cover and hold on.

Today's Federal Register features a host of proposed changes to how ED issues grant proposals and reviews submissions. One key item is allowing for competitive preference for institutions that go below their federally negotiated indirect cost rate. www.federalregister.gov/public-inspe...
Proposed changes to § 75.228, which would allow the Secretary to give
competitive preference to applicants who charge lower indirect costs than their negotiated
rate, would provide the Department with greater flexibility to ensure that Federal funds
are directed toward the activities and outcomes most central to a program’s purpose. This
authority would enable the Department to give competitive preference in competitions for
applicants who charge lower indirect costs, based on the unique objectives and design of
individual grant programs, particularly where program goals are best advanced by
maximizing resources available for direct services, evidence-based interventions,
capacity-building activities, or other programmatic investments. By establishing the
competitive preference in the application notice, applicants would have clear expectations
before applying, promoting consistency, fairness, and informed budgeting across all
competitors. This flexibility would also strengthen the Department’s stewardship of
Federal funds by allowing it to align funding structures with program objectives and
ensure that available resources are used as effectively as possible to achieve intended
outcomes.

NIH grants have been under political scrutiny since early 2025. But what does the screening process actually look like? What is being flagged? I spent a month digging into leaked docs and emails. We've published the 235-word list that are being flagged by an internal AI tool. And so much more. 🧵

Mandatory reviews by top health officials and checks for 235 disfavoured terms have left hundreds of vetted grant applications in administrative limbo.
