Prof. Steffanie Stratdee, Canadian, working at the University of California in California San Diego Medical School, says she was stunned when she saw NIH’s funding was stopped.
Canadian scientists say that uncertainty about the apparent pause of US President Donald Trump for federal health expenses can stop research on new drugs, vaccines and cancer treatment, dementia and others – including laboratories in Canada. US National Health Institutes (NIH) powers some of the best scientists in the world. The majority of its US $ 47 billion budget last year financed research that the agency believes to “improve health, prolonging life, reduce disease and damage.” This includes work done by Canadian researchers who received over $ 40 million in funding last year. Finance have been canceled without a word when they will be deferred this week. Training, presented on or after January 25. All this leaves many scientists – including those in Canada – are not sure about the future of their work. Canadian Stephanie Stratdi moved to the United States in 1998 and received NIH funding for his HIV prevention research. She is waiting for a new submission of grant for $ 12 million in the United States, and a meeting scheduled with NIH next week to order it is on the air. “When I opened my computer and saw that the NIH dollars were frozen, I was stunned,” Stratdi said. Strathdee is a professor at the University of California School in San Diego. The study involves following large groups of people who use medicines over time to study HIV and hepatitis C. Part of her work involves studies in Canada with people who use medicines to inform prevention and treatment in the United States, Canada and outside. Stratdi said that most researchers he knew were already affected by temporary frosts of meetings, trips, communication and hiring at NIH.

(Alison Northcott/CBC) “In the best scenario, we are facing a significant delay in funding, and this means that the livelihood of my staff and my students, both in Canada and in the US, are affected.” Future consequences? Researchers working at Canadian universities are also worried about lack of clarity. Nathan Spray is Professor of James McGill at the Department of Neurology and Neurosurgery at McGill University in Montreal, where he studies how the brain is changing with age. NIH funded its study of loneliness, brain aging and Alzheimer’s disease. Studies like Spreng, if underfunded, could slow down the development of future treatments. “The consequences of this are just a real human suffering,” Spreng said. “There are a number of illnesses and injuries that are not currently well treated. There are no this types of funding, these people will simply continue to suffer.” NIH’s funding has contributed to the development of all, except for two of the 356 medicines approved by the US Food and Medicines Administration between 2010 and 2019, an article from 2023 in Jama Health Forum offers. Cloak | Financing, but also sharing information, bet if we leave who: Spreng stated that the main concern in the scientific community is for sections for NIH research, panels led by experts ranking for grant offers S “It won’t be immediately felt,” Spray said. “It will take a few years to have some cumulative impact, but beyond the board, what we will see are less treatment, less innovation in medicine and the persistence of poor health.” The scientific community is exception to Chilan, According to a note for the first time, on Monday by Stat, US -based health and medical news site allows people enrolled in clinical trials of potential drugs to travel to research sites. But the continued confusion about the impact on the wider financing of NIH research continues to continue. “This is really freezing science,” and cold is felt throughout the scientific community, “said Jim Woodget, a cancer researcher at the Lunenfeld-Tanenbaum Institute in Terry Fox’s Sinai health.

He said the details of NIH Research’s funding seem to be changing to the second. (Craig Chivers/CBC) “We don’t know much about the details and they seem to change every second,” he said. “I think uncertainty actually adds to the crisis.” Woodgett notes that Canadian Health Research Institutes, the main medical research financier in this country, have a budget of about $ 1.4 billion. Since 2016, the Canada Government has been investing $ 22 billion for scientific and research initiatives. By comparison, NIH itself spends more than double, which is over $ 47 billion each year or $ 67 billion in Canadian dollars. Stratdi, a HIV scientist, said uncertainty about US funding opens the door to Canada to increase research financing and attract higher American scientists – or return to Canadians back home. “It’s an opportunity for not brain drain, but the acquisition of the brain,” Stratdi said. “I am just one of many people who want to return home and have never given up my cooperation in Canada.” A spokesman for the Federal Minister of Innovation, Science and Industry told CBC News that the government is watching the development of science and research in the United States. Stratdi currently traveling between San Diego and Toronto, Hedjira’s bets. “If things continue to erode in the United States and this is a deliberate erosion of the public health infrastructure, then I will review my decision on where I will invest the rest of my time in my career.”
