Sharing some encouraging news re: CDC PRAMS. The CDC has indicated they will weight and clean the 2024 PRAMS data. Also, the PRAMS data collection system (PIDS) is up and running again and some sites have begun 2025 PRAMS data collection. Hopefully restoration of the ARF portal is coming soon too.

NEW at grant-watch.us: Emma Mairson and Marian Jarlenski report on funding freezes at Brown, Columbia, Cornell, and Northwestern, that have received zero payments for #NIH grants since the start of April: grant-watch.us/posts/trends...
Two line graphs show NIH Outlays for Grants at Brown University. The left graph, "Outlay per month (USD)," shows monthly outlays from October (P01-P02) to June (P09) for fiscal years 2022, 2023, 2024, and 2025. The 2025 line (black) shows outlays around $15,000,000 from October 2024 to March 2025, then drops sharply to $0 in April 2025 and remains at $0 for May and June. Lines for previous fiscal years remain above $10,000,000 throughout the period. The right graph, "Percent of grants without an outlay," shows the percentage of grants without monthly outlays over the same period. The 2025 line (black) shows percentages below 10% until March 2025, then spikes to 100% in April 2025 and remains at 100% for May and June. Lines for previous fiscal years remain below 20%. Two line graphs show NIH Outlays for Grants at Columbia University. The left graph, "Outlay per month (USD)," shows monthly outlays from October (P01-P02) to June (P09) for fiscal years 2022, 2023, 2024, and 2025. The 2025 line (black) shows outlays between $40,000,000 and $60,000,000 from October 2024 to March 2025, then drops sharply to approximately $20,000,000 in April 2025 and to $0 in May and June. Lines for previous fiscal years fluctuate but remain generally above $25,000,000. The right graph, "Percent of grants without an outlay," shows the percentage of grants without monthly outlays over the same period. The 2025 line (black) shows percentages below 20% until March 2025, then spikes to 100% in April 2025 and remains at 100% for May and June. Lines for previous fiscal years remain mostly below 20%.

Lines for previous fiscal years show some variability but generally stay above $0, with some dips. The right graph, "Percent of grants without an outlay," shows the percentage of grants without monthly outlays over the same period. The 2025 line (black) shows percentages below 20% until March 2025, then spikes to 100% in April 2025 and remains at 100% for May and June. Lines for previous fiscal years show more variability than Harvard and Northwestern, with some spikes, as well, but returning to normal levels after. Two line graphs show NIH Outlays for Grants at Northwestern University. The left graph, "Outlay per month (USD)," shows monthly outlays from October (P01-P02) to June (P09) for fiscal years 2022, 2023, 2024, and 2025. The 2025 line (black) shows outlays around $30,000,000 from October 2024 to March 2025, then drops sharply to $0 in April 2025 and remains at $0 for May and June. Lines for previous fiscal years remain above $25,000,000 throughout the period.

"The NIH official said they had put in paperwork to leave the agency. 'I don’t want to be part of the dismantling of American science,' the official said."
Trump promised scientific breakthroughs. Researchers say he’s breaking science.
NIH funding for biomedical research has abruptly fallen by billions of dollars, with many grant decisions on hold. Trump officials say they’re reviewing the agency.

If the NIH gets messed up, there is no alternative. Not just in the US, but globally. It is by far the biggest engine of health research in the world. Which is why the idea that US scientists can just do their work elsewhere is a little fanciful.
