Where U.S. science has been hit hardest after Trump’s first year The Trump administration has slashed the number of grants from the National Institutes of Health, with far fewer focused on women, cancer and mental health.

During Trump's first year the NIH supported 2,700 fewer projects, including a 31% drop in projects with the word "women" in them.

Trump's attack on science is undermining American innovation & more importantly, is an attack on Americans' health.
