"U.S. researchers face new restrictions on publishing with foreign collaborators."
https://www.science.org/content/article/u-s-researchers-face-new-restrictions-publishing-foreign-collaborators"Grants managers at two of the U.S. government’s largest funders of scientific research have recently placed unprecedented limitations on the ability of U.S. scientists to publish with co-authors from other countries, researchers say. Units of the National Institutes of Health (#NIH) are privately directing grantees to request permission in advance for any co-authorship with a scholar affiliated with a foreign institution, even if all the work was done in the United States. #NASA, meanwhile, is reportedly telling some grantees that papers co-authored with researchers in #China may have violated its rules."

The actions described in *Science* strike me as a #racist, #anti-ethnic #outrage, & as a #medical #editor, this angers me: the #NIH & #NASA are restricting US #researchers from coauthoring research papers with #foreign #scientists. https://www.science.org/content/article/u-s-researchers-face-new-restrictions-publishing-foreign-collaborators I've always enjoyed editing research papers for physician–researchers around the world.

RE: https://newsie.social/@STAT/116619128191856380
Well, they've already broken the #NIH and have crippled the #CDC, so this is the logical next step. It's almost like #MAHA is a lie.

The US Government Accountability Office (#GAO) just reviewed the #OpenAccess policies at nine federal agencies.
https://www.gao.gov/products/gao-26-107738A few highlights:
* Among other things, GAO looked for compliance with the #NelsonMemo. This is further evidence that the #Trump admin supports the memo.
* It encourages #NSF and #USDA to go further to ensure #reuse rights. (That would be good.) But it assumes that the other agencies are already doing enough to ensure reuse rights. (I can't agree with this.)
* It praises #NIH for taking steps to reduce money spent on grantee #APCs, and encourages other agencies to follow the NIH lead on this.
* In a few places it leaves the false impression (1) that all OA journals charge APCs and (2) that all publishers are responding the federal policies by charging APCs to publish fed-funded research.

"Seeing these labs empty — this is not the way it's supposed to be. This was a very vibrant lab."
Something a Republican senator once told him about the agency, "He used to refer to it not just as the crown jewel in biomedical research, but as the crown jewel in the federal government."
When the cuts hit, Berg started tracking their progress, charting the changes over the last year. The budget may look intact on paper, however, NIH has switched the strategy to making fewer grants with more money over more years, an accounting shift that means fewer scientists are getting funding.
Berg's analysis showed that at one point earlier this year, NIH had issued about half as many as at the same point the previous year.
"There's a lot of pain and a lot of science that isn't gonna get done."
"That means that the therapeutic development work that taxpayers previously invested in is now hitting a brick wall."

More #RFKJr malfeasance: "A staffing shortage is making it difficult for the US National Institutes of Health (#NIH) to spend its US$47-billion budget by awarding research grants.
"It is missing dozens of staff members, called grants management specialists (GMSs), who are crucial to handling the business and administrative aspects of issuing grants." https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-026-01537-1

RE: https://mstdn.social/@DemocracyMattersALot/116573632316555157
Read this and weep. I hope that our collective rage against this politics of #eugenics and hate matches and ultimately overcomes the scorn heaped upon the world by #Trump, #RFK, and the #fascists who are currently in charge. These people who have cut #NIH funding for #cancer, #dementia, & other #diseases that cause such suffering do not deserve the medical treatment that comes with the #research they attack and refuse to fund. It's a shanda.

New #NIH funding mechanism: Science-Driven Research Project (RP1): https://grants.nih.gov/funding/activity-codes/RP1
- "Funding Category: #Research and Development"
- "Supports both standard and exploratory research projects."
- "...application options [including] exploratory [or up to 3 years], standard, and extended in cases when project periods greater than 5 years are allowed)"
- "Exploratory projects include those that are in early and conceptual stages and may involve considerable risk that has the potential to lead to a breakthrough or major development in a field of #biomedical, #behavioral, or #clinical research."
- "If all the PD/PIs on an RP1 application have early stage investigator (ESI) status on the date an application is submitted, the application ...will receive special consideration."
