Who's calling the shots at NIH? Sworn testimonies and internal e-mails reveal for the first time the breadth of DOGE's control over the world's largest public biomedical funder. DOGE has provided lists of hundreds of grants to cut, and DOGE is now reviewing ALL NIH awards before they're released

Federal grant funding of research is incredibly important to Oregon’s economy and for training the next generation of scientists. Calling on @wyden.senate.gov @repbonamici.bsky.social @salinas.house.gov @repvalhoyle.bsky.social to oppose the EO freezing federal grants!
