The article discusses the impact of a stop-work order issued by the Trump administration on research projects at Harvard. Specifically, Don Ingber, the director of the Wyss Institute, revealed that this order halted ongoing organ-on-a-chip projects worth over $19 million. The stop-work order followed Harvard's rejection of government demands on governance and hiring practices, prompting the university to file a lawsuit against the federal government. The situation caused uncertainty for researchers and staff, and Ingber emphasized the importance of supporting his team during this period of disruption.
"This is a stop-work order that could end next week, especially with the lawsuit going. We're going to take care of the people first."
