Russell Vought is OMB Director. OMB decides how appropriated funds reach agencies. Congress set NIH at ~$47.2B for FY2026. His office has faced criticism for delays/restrictions in release. New awards and success rates have dropped. #NIH #ScienceFunding

“PPAN trained scientists have enabled us to create industry leading AI technology.” 🧪🔭🤖

— Dr David Evans, Head of Data Engineering @FreeAgent

Developments in #UKRI funding are being watched “with alarm.”

Postdoctoral support in UK theoretical particle physics has dropped from 58.33 to 19.5 PDRA years per year — a ~67% reduction. 🧪🔭

These positions are central to research, training, and the skills pipeline into industry.

The impact will extend well beyond academia.

Shows a COSSA conference badge with attached flair stickers designating state affiliation and that I “play well with others” and am an “official smarty pants” (as well as a first time attendee of social science advocacy day).

Tomorrow I will be meeting the whole day with Congress people from Louisiana and Texas (I am half-Texan) to discuss the importance of social #sciencefunding on behalf of COSSA & @spspnews.bsky.social Wish me luck!

PPAN-trained scientists drive innovation across the UK industry.

Cutting this pipeline is short-sighted.

Science funding needs fixing — but not through chaotic reforms The changes announced by a major UK science funder are putting scientists — and the future of research — in a difficult position.

Reforms of #ScienceFunding in the UK aim to “do fewer things better”.

Clearer priorities could strengthen impact, but uncertain timelines and budget shifts may slow #research momentum, especially for early-career scientists.
