The US Supreme Court has derailed researchers’ efforts to reinstate almost $2 billion in grants issued by the NIH. The court’s decision represents a remarkable reversal, allowing the Trump team to proceed with its science cuts.

Please beware that there are fake X accounts using my name for alternate therapies - I do not prescribe any such therapies and I also do not offer medical opinions on X.

If there was a drug that could restore 20-30 life years, you would think every funder would be tripping to get it to market. We have that treatment in housing.

I am disappointed at a system where for a 85 year old man who has progressed on 3 lines of therapy but lives alone, I can easily prescribe 4th line of treatment at the click of a button that costs the system 15K a month, but can’t arrange for a social support worker who can cook him food, bathe him, buy him groceries etc. that’d hardly cost the system 1K a month!
