NASA, NSF, and NIH are expected to receive higher financial backing for the 2019 fiscal year, going above and beyond the President’s proposed budget.  

The company’s announcement comes weeks after enrollment was suspended.

The paper’s authors say bias may nevertheless be present in other steps of the granting process.

Under a new policy, the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke will provide fewer grants to labs receiving more than $1 million in funds.

The announcement comes after an agency working group recommends against an industry partnership on ethical grounds.

An email exchange and an unusual meeting suggest a connection between an institute’s pursuit of industry support and the rejection of a grant application.

NIH, NSF, and the DOE’s Office of Science will be among the agencies with budget increases if the omnibus bill is passed.

The research center and medical school admittedly violated the rules in spending grants from the National Institutes of Health.

Funds for the NIH and NSF would stay flat, while some agencies, including the FDA and NASA, would see increases.

More than 3,500 scientists had signed an open letter to NIH Director Francis Collins opposing the rules change.
