The loss of medical and scientific research and expertise is horrifying to me as these are not capabilities easily rebuilt once they are lost. How many future lives will be lost due to this destruction?
Well written. Everyone who has worked in a research lab in academia or industry knows that even the best laid out ideas is simply not enough sometimes. If you invent something particularly in an academic setting the university owns your patent! They get the royalties!!! Same for industry unless there is some type of legal agreement between the company and the inventor.
This leads me to my next point. Some scientists continue on to law school and become patent attorneys. You would be surprised at the number of patent disputes. And then…some pursue academia and bioinformatics.
Both of my daughters are scientists and this will HURT. So much basic research benefitting all of humanity comes from these two institutions. My deepest patriotism is stimulated when I think of our outstanding national laboratories and NIH.
Thank you, thank you, thank you! Only an ignorant, heartless person would undertake the kind of actions we are seeing. Thoughtful, compassionate people recognize this regime for what it is-evil.
This ordinary citizen knows the importance of scientific and medical research, and is cognizant of academic knowledge and research greatly adding to the overall science of our time. Why isn't a president not aware of this importance?
I worked I research for > 10 years under a true innovative Neurosurgeon. What trump is doing is ignorant, cruel, and unfortunately, intentional. This is a great article. Maybe we can find a billionaire who is not evil to help fund before the US, (as trump is trying to do & succeeding), irreparably damaged.

Thank you for educating me.
