National Science Foundation freezes grant review in response to Trump executive orders The National Science Foundation has cancelled all grant review panels this week. It's unclear how long the pause could last.

The National Science Foundation cancelled over 60 grant review panels today, effectively grinding funding of new projects to a halt.

The so-far indefinite pause comes as NSF grapples with the impact Trump's executive orders will have on their grantmaking process.
