‘My scientific career is essentially over.’ A brain drain imperils Massachusetts’ biomedical future - The Boston Globe In a first-of-its-kind survey, the Globe asked hundreds of scientists about the impact of federal funding cuts.

This article paints a devastating picture of the impact of recent cuts to federal research and the negative impact it is having on cutting-edge research on cancer and other diseases. There is no good reason for these cuts.
