Trump Administration Stalls Scientific Research Despite Court Ruling Using an arcane law, officials have effectively delayed funding from the National Institutes of Health, leaving medical studies in jeopardy.

In January, we were closer than ever before to finding life changing treatments for Alzheimer’s disease. The funding stoppage has slowed this progress.

Alzheimer's research funding is in the DOGE crosshairs, putting invaluable datasets (including tens of thousands of genomes) and biorepositories at risk. This reflects the volunteer efforts of thousands of research participants over four decades. Please contact your reps/senators. Hands off NIH.

Oops: Trump-Musk Cuts Just Wrecked an NIH Org Championed by GOPers Republicans once lavished praise on an NIH center that deals with Alzheimer’s. Donald Trump and Elon Musk are hobbling it. What will they say now?

Scoop --> Trump-Musk cuts just resulted in the firing of numerous top researchers at NIH's center for combating Alzheimer's, sources tell me. They predict big setbacks to fighting dementias.

This cause was once championed by *Republicans.*

Amazing evening celebrating a year of achievements w/ the lab! We crushed 3 escape rooms with 0 to 1 clueβ€”proof we’re pros at solving complex puzzles. We’ve earned every bit of our NIH awards to keep cracking code of #dementia. @grinberglab.bsky.social @ucsfmac.bsky.social @ajehrenberg.bsky.social

Linde and her family’s story reminds us of the urgency to treat FTD and to find creative solutions to support care givers for this complex disease. #EndFTD @curemaptftd.bsky.social
