Slasher sequel: Trump again proposes major cuts to U.S. science spending Science advocates urge Congress to reject 2027 budget plan

If at first you don’t succeed, try, try again.

That appears to be the thinking behind the 2027 budget request to Congress that President Donald Trump unveiled today. https://scim.ag/4sRnw3x

Association of Infection Frequency and Incident Clonal Hematopoiesis of Indeterminant Potential Clonal hematopoiesis of Indeterminant Potential (CHIP) is an age-related phenomenon characterized by clonal expansion of hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs)1. CHIP results from a fitness advantage conferr...

First (to my knowledge) manuscript describing a correlation between number of infections and incidence of clonal hematopoiesis (CHIP). Really important from the perspective of highlighting a possible modifiable driver of CHIP during aging. @isehsociety.bsky.social www.exphem.org/article/S030...

All in all, this update reveals a number of issues to be concerned about:

(1) Slow pace of grant making, particularly for new and competitive renewal grants

(2) OMB apportionment delays as a possible cause

(3) Slow pace of institutional training grants

(4) Increased use of multiyear funding

What if aging begins in the youngest immune cells? Emmanuelle Passegué reveals how changes in hematopoietic stem cells drive declining immunity, inflammaging & disease risk, and how restoring them could rebuild resilience.
