Trump’s proposed cuts to the National Institutes of Health (NIH) threaten U.S. biomedical research, forcing many scientists to consider leaving the country.

A 7 February policy would slash NIH funding by two-thirds, though a federal judge has temporarily blocked it.

Researchers relying on these grants fear for their jobs, with some already exploring options abroad.

The cuts particularly impact neuroscience, diabetes, and bird flu research, while also dismantling DEI initiatives.

Many scientists warn of long-term consequences for innovation and global health collaboration.

Do not listen to him! Europe! Come to Europe! Great Benefits, long holidays and you can travel between multiple countries and temperature-zones. When staying in canada, you can only travel back to the US or take a plane to cross either one of the two biggest oceans to get anywhere. In Europe you can spend a decade without running out of places to go. Also: We love your brain. Please come to Europe!
