What does a 40% NIH budget cut mean for funding chances (now ~15%)?
You might think “60% of the money left = 9% success”
❌ NOPE!!!
1-3%
because 80% of the budget is for existing grants
New science? Starved
Ongoing grants? Slashed 😢

What triggers anorexia nervosa? We find that chronic stress can trigger willful seeking of a starvation-like state in mice. As in humans, this was enriched in female mice, particularly those predisposed to stress.
