With federal research funding uncertain, states debate new science initiatives A handful of states are considering initiatives to increase funding for scientific research as uncertainty around federal dollars has grown.

Chancellor Michael F. Collins and Nobel laureate Victor R. Ambros, PhD, spoke to STAT about how UMass Chan Medical School is affected by the NIH’s transition to multiyear funding and how state funding could help: direc.to/oWeg

Boston built a global biotech empire. Now the talent is quietly drifting away. - The Boston Globe In a first-of-its-kind survey, the Globe asked hundreds of scientists about the impact of federal funding cuts.

The Boston Globe surveyed researchers in Massachusetts who receive NIH funding and heard from 370, including Rachael Sirianni, PhD, a pediatric brain cancer researcher at UMass Chan: direc.to/oUwc

“I’m holding my breath,” Dr. Sirianni said.

Chancellor Collins speaks out on threat to biomedical research Chancellor Michael F. Collins says changes to NIH funding mechanisms threaten the nation’s biomedical research infrastructure and undermine clinical advances.

“To suggest that it’s simple to take the money and distribute it on geographic balance doesn’t recognize the importance of the investment that has been made over six or seven decades.”

#ICYMI: Chancellor Michael F. Collins was featured on @politico.com & @bostonglobe.com: direc.to/oUU6 #NIHfunding

Democrats just handed RFK Jr. billions more than he asked for. It was a big risk. Lawmakers rejected huge health cuts President Donald Trump requested. Kennedy’s diverting the funds to pet projects and red states.

Chancellor Michael F. Collins spoke to POLITICO about NIH director Jay Bhattacharya’s plans for a more widespread distribution of research funds: direc.to/oT1y

“Cancer, diabetes, Alzheimer’s disease, does not have a red or blue component,” Collins said.

AAMC Statement on Passage of FY 2026 Labor-HHS Appropriations Bill The AAMC applauds Congress for passing the Appropriations package.

Congress passed the FY 2026 Labor HHS Education bill, reaffirming NIH funded biomedical research as a national priority, preserving full research cost recovery, supporting the health workforce, and extending key clinical and telehealth provisions.

House and Senate appropriators endorse NIH budget increase, reject Trump’s proposed cuts Congressional appropriations committees offered a near-total rebuke of President Trump’s proposed downsizing and reshaping of the NIH.

Congress moved on FY 2026 NIH budget . funds NIH at $48.7B, preserves full indirect cost recovery, blocks expanded multi year funding mechanisms, maintains the current Institute and Center structure with no reorganization.

Congress Is Reversing Trump’s Steep Budget Cuts to Science

Good news! Key Republicans are responging to lobbying efforts to and pushing back against cuts to science & medicine in Trump's budget.

🙏 continue this lobbying full-force. as there's daily impact of cutbacks already made🙏

Quote from MDF Advocates Jeannine DeSoi, RN, and Dylan Farnsworth, PhD, "We're asking Congress to pass a full year NIH budget so research doesn't stall. Every delay in funding is a delay in future treatments for myotonic dystrophy."

Congress has not passed a full-year FY2026 budget, putting NIH funding for #MyotonicDystrophy research at risk.

Your voice matters. Urge Congress to protect and increase NIH support for DM research today: www.votervoice.net/Myotonic/Cam...

Blaming NIH for the pandemic and slamming DEI work? That’s political theater, not serious policy. NIH funds life-saving research, so holding it hostage to score points hurts everyone. We need reform, not wreckage. #NIHFunding #ScienceMatters #PublicHealthSecurity
