Trump suspended UC Berkeley grants over foreign funding.' Some researchers say they didn't have any.

NSF suspended nearly $21 million in research grants to UC Berkeley and alleged principal investigators failed to disclose outside-U.S. funding. The named countries were mostly traditional U.S. allies, including the United Kingdom, Australia, and Switzerland. Several lead researchers said they had not received funding from the specific countries NSF cited. The allegations were detailed in an April 13 letter to the university obtained by Berkeleyside. The dispute could mark a new phase in conflict over research dollars between the UC system and the Trump administration. The White House has proposed rules increasing political appointees’ control over federal grantmaking. The 18 affected grants covered topics including poison frog skin color, gene editing in corn and barley, and AI-driven autonomous driving research.
