Each individual Irukandji is entitled to personal liberties and that includes the right to maintain their own dignity and privacy. That you are seeking to jeopardize those rights is concerning, and pushes forward to a time on the internet where the threat of catfishing could silence free speech.

IMO this hasn't gotten enough attention: a recent memo at NIH announces that peer review will be devalued in determining which grants get funded, granting more power to political appointees to make decisions based on the admin's whims over scientific merit

The fiscal year is over.

So how was the NIH appropriation committed?

A long thread with institute by institute results about where the money went.

I think the R01 is basically a non-starter at NIGMS now. Data from NIH Reporter for new and competing awards, comparing number of R01s issued relative to R35s (MIRA). This has major ramifications for basic science and basic science investigators that are not yet in the MIRA pool
Graph showing total R35+R01 awards issued by NIGMS from 2020 to 2025. R01 in black showing a steep decline. R35 showing an increase. Total awards in 2025 slightly up from 2024 but these years are lower than 2020-2023
