For U.S. medical researchers, shrinking labs and bare budgets are the new reality 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.

American science is shrinking.

A Post analysis found that, halfway through this fiscal year, the number of competitive grants awarded by the National Institutes of Health is down by more than half compared with the same period last year. https://wapo.st/3OgoHKV

Thanks so much! Don't get me wrong but the way you wrote is ABC is thinking of doing BCG and then PQ is talking about XY. I will read through and find what RF projects are, but not everyone will :) Still, thanks for pointing me to the right direction!

Peripheral CNV in a donor eye with multi-focal GA

Peripheral CNV in a donor eye with multi-focal GA

In my lab's latest paper, just out in IOVS, D. Scott McLeod beautifully illustrated the choroidal pathology in a donor with multi-focal GA. I am grateful to Christine Curcio and K. Bailey Freund for allowing us to study these eyes and to all other co-authors.

Just a quick clarification: everyone gets 5 votes per round (not per day!) β€” which makes a lot more sense πŸ˜„ Vote for us! We’re competing with a project studying how lipid supplementation may improve aging vision. More results soon, thanks for your support! #aging #AMD #vision #WomeninScience

At Science Translational Medicine I paid ONLY for color figures (~$900). Where did you find the $5K number? Did it change since last year?

No animal was caught and killed just for our study on vision in the Greenland shark, and that all our research has been done under all necessary ethical permits and clearances. We want to contribute to the understanding of this enigmatic and endangered species to improve their conservation.
