Trump Administration's Proposed Rule Could Impact U.S. Scientific Research
The Trump administration has proposed a new rule that could restrict international collaboration and give political appointees the power to decide which scientific research projects receive funding. This proposal, put forward by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB), has raised concerns among scientists who warn that it could severely curtail research in areas such as pediatric cancer treatment and maternal health. The rule would allow political appointees to terminate grants at any time, potentially disrupting long-term scientific projects.
