A recent study revealed that the Trump administration, during its ideological shift, terminated a significant number of NIH research grants, especially those aimed at minority health and disparities. Researchers from Yale and Harvard found that the NIH terminated $1.81 billion in funding, affecting 694 grants across various institutes, particularly targeting LGBTQ+ health, HIV prevention, and diversity initiatives. Despite critiques regarding transparency, the findings shed light on the extent of the financial cuts, with the National Institute of Mental Health leading in grant cancellations, emphasizing a troubling trend in health research funding.
The NIH has terminated hundreds of active research grants, including many focused on LGBTQ+ communities, HIV prevention, and diversity.
The NIH terminated $1.81 billion in grant funding between Feb. 28 and April 8, impacting 694 grants across the institutes.
