An open letter to the U.S. Congress

Keep science apolitical!

209 so far! Help us get to 250 signers!

No to White House control of NIH grant review and funding! Placing scientific grants under White House, or political control, threatens, the integrity, objectivity, and innovation of research. Critics, scientist, and lawmakers agree that shifting funding decisions from independent expert to political appointees, prioritizes short term, political agenda, over evidence and data and long-term public health.
