Gotta reach out to the journalists, y'all. They really are doing their best in an unprecedented situation. They are quite literally the only view we have on the situation as the Feds have turned into a black box. 🧪 🩺
If you are a researcher or administrator/staff at NIH-funded universities, I would love to hear what's happening at your institution in the wake of the indirect costs policy change. Signal is davelevitan.26, you can remain anonymous if you prefer.

Executive wants to frame the NIH indirects cut as $4B in savings.
But given that NIH returns $2.5 on every $1 investment, this would actually cost US economy a net $6 BILLION (per year!). Not to mention the human costs of wrecking education and research sectors and the communities they serve.
