Trump's proposal is ILLEGAL & amounts to an indiscriminate funding cut for research centers of all sizes, NOT just Ivies. It will mean shuttering labs across the country, layoffs in red & blue states, & derailing lifesaving research on everything from cancer to opioid addiction.
Last year, $9B of the $35B that the National Institutes of Health (NIH) granted for research was used for administrative overhead, what is known as “indirect costs.” Today, NIH lowered the maximum indirect cost rate research institutions can charge the government to 15%, above what many major foundations allow and much lower than the 60%+ that some institutions charge the government today. This change will save more than $4B a year effective immediately.

So excited to join the Division of Immunobiology at Cincinnati Children's Hospital MC in March 2025. My lab will study how RNA biology regulates and is regulated by infection and immunity. We'll be hiring at all levels in 2025 - stay tuned! gokhalelab.com/

Here's one of the reasons that could explain why the monovalent XBB.1.5 booster works so well biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/… @SutharLab

Having a safe and effective vaccine for RSV has been a career-long dream. Excess mortality in frail elderly is a problem. Hospitalization and lung damage in young infants also problematic. Maternal vaccine to protect babies through 1st 6 months of life also in phase 3 testing.
Received an email from Rino Rappuoli this morning informing me, @BarneyGrahamMD and Peter Kwong of the positive phase III data for the RSV prefusion F vaccine results in older adults. It's been almost 10 years since we designed the first prefusion RSV F antigen, DS-Cav1. Amazing!

Dr. Fauci was eligible for his COVID booster shot so Stephen took him next door to the pharmacy to get vaccinated — and they had quite the journey. #Colbert
