The National Science Foundation (NSF), National Institutes of Health (NIH), and other science agencies are required to adapt to President Trump's orders that diminish federal support for diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) initiatives. The NSF has paused its grant review panels until at least Feb. 7 while assessing thousands of existing research projects for compliance with new regulations. Meanwhile, the NIH has resumed travel and grant reviews, albeit under strict communication restrictions and confidentiality. Legal rulings are preventing agencies from terminating awards based on executive orders, complicating the landscape for scientific funding and diversity policies.
Some scientists are concerned about the implications of President Trump's executive orders, which impact diversity initiatives and how grant applications are reviewed.
Federal agencies, such as the National Science Foundation and the National Institutes of Health, face challenges in balancing compliance with Trump's orders while still supporting research.
