Yesterday, we circulated an organizational sign-on letter<http://smartmailerclick.bisglobal.net/act_linkClick.aspx?sm_guid=ODY1ODYwfDIyNzQ4MzE2fDF8anVyYW1pcmV6QGRhdmlkc29uLmVkdXw3OTYwNTg2fGh0dHBzOi8vd3d3LnJlc2VhcmNoYW1lcmljYS5vcmcvd3AtY29udGVudC91cGxvYWRzLzIwMjUvMDUvTklILVNpZ24tT24tTGV0dGVyLU1heS0yNS5wZGZ8MHwwfDB8OTUzfDB8MHx8ODYxMTM3fDE1> urging Congress to reject the proposed 38% cut to the National Institutes of Health (NIH) included in the president’s FY26 budget request. The letter calls for bold, sustained investment in NIH and a deliberative, public process before any structural changes are made to the agency.
