π£ New preprint from the SCIMaP team!
Across three studies, we show that communicating the economic impact of NIH funding cutsβespecially with interactive quizzes and mapsβdecreases approval and motivates action to oppose the cuts, across the political spectrum. π§΅ 1/8

Faceted plot with panels for Atlanta, Pittsbrugh, and Houston. Focal counties (Dekalb, Alleghany, and Houston) are outlined. Surrounding counties are shaded by future estimated annual economic loss due to the proposed cap on indirect costs based on commuter flows that connect to a focal county (indicated by light pink outline).
#SCIMaP estimates current & future economic losses in local communities across the US (counties & Congressional Districts). We explain our approach in a new preprint: www.medrxiv.org/content/10.1...

SCIMaP - Impacts of Federal Cuts to Science and Medical Research
Developed by an interdisciplinary research team, this website shows how funding cuts reduce economic activity and employment nationwide
The White House's proposed FY26 budget would cut NIH funding by >40%. Our new #SCIMaP report projects the budget would lead to economic losses throughout the US with $10M+ lost in almost every House district.
