  1. Since the 1950s, the #federal govt has consistently operated as the predominant source of #research #funding for #universities, acc/to the #NSF.

    One of the largest govt sources of research funding has been the #NIH, which disburses about $35 billion each year. The largest recipients of those NIH #grants are #MedicalSchools, acc/to the Association of American Medical Colleges.

  2. By directing a triad of investigations specifically at #MedicalSchools in a single day, the #Trump admin is widening its targets & transforming a decades-long financial partnership into a tool of #cultural leverage.

    That partnership dates back to a postwar consensus in the country that #ScientificProgress is a fundamental #PublicGood — one too vital to be left to the vagaries of the market or the limitations of private philanthropy.

  3. …The govt’s attacks on #HigherEducation during the past year have in part been aimed at tilting the #political balance of #academia, which #Trump views as hostile to his brand of “conservatism”. Some #MedicalSchools had been swept up in the campaign, but largely at #universities like #Harvard, #UPenn & #UCLA, where the full force of the govt was on display through investigations into “antisemitism” [#Palestinian Rights activism], protections for #transgender athletes & #admissions policies.

  14. #Europe’s #MedicalSchools to give more training on diseases linked to climate crisis

    "Mosquito-borne diseases such as dengue and malaria will become a bigger part of the curriculum at medical schools across Europe in the face of the climate crisis.

    Future doctors will also have more training on how to recognise and treat heatstroke, and be expected to take the climate impact of treatments such as inhalers for asthma into account."
