New data from @AIMBE highlighting the impact of funding cuts and grant terminations on the BME field ‼️ The evidence is clear: these disruptions are resulting in immediate and long-term consequences for biomedical innovation and training the next generation of scientists.
AIMBE@aimbe

📣 AIMBE has released data surveying >100 biomedical engineering departments on the impact of disruptions to research & training: - 71% reported grant terminations - 45% indicated reduced graduate student enrollment Please share our 1-pager widely 👇 bit.ly/3IXDVRW

I am so deeply sad to share that our beloved dog Rosa passed away last night. It was unexpected and quick, which is the only thing bringing us peace. She was the best girl. We were so, so lucky to know her and love her. @pashucklab

Biomedical researchers, @aimbe is seeking anecdotes on how recent policies have disrupted your grants/research: aimbe.wufoo.com/forms/qs9tsin1… Your messages (can be anonymous) are critical for us to advocate to our Members of Congress to take action against these federal disruptions 👇
AIMBE@aimbe

AIMBE is looking for biomedical researchers to share how recent policies have disrupted their grants/work: aimbe.wufoo.com/forms/qs9tsin1… Your personal anecdotes help us convey to Members of Congress the devastating impact of these changes. Your responses can remain anonymous.

Biomedical researchers, @aimbe has developed & put out another advocacy letter opposing the recent slashed support for NIH indirect cost rates. Regardless of your career stage (or if you are a Fellow), please take 1-2 mins to send a letter to your congressional representatives!
AIMBE@aimbe

Write a letter to your lawmakers now opposing NIH's 15% Indirect Cost Cap using AIMBE's template letter. takeaction.io/aimbe/oppose-n…
