They were typically people of great integrity who had dedicated themselves to the often-frustrating and tedious task of painstaking research to find new cures and preventions for important medical problems. And the bottom line for many of them was that, without government support, they could never have achieved the discoveries that have helped us all.<\/p>\n<p>Which is why I am stunned by <a href=\"https:\/\/jamanetwork.com\/journals\/jama\/fullarticle\/2833880?guestAccessKey=3a432109-6c9d-4ef2-9d10-bf48d91fe441&amp;utm_source=for_the_media&amp;utm_medium=referral&amp;utm_campaign=ftm_links&amp;utm_content=tfl&amp;utm_term=050825\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">a recent report<\/a> that states the Trump administration&#8217;s National Institutes of Health has stopped payments on grants totaling more than $1.8 billion for nearly <em>700 specific medical research projects<\/em>.\u00a0 \u00a0 <\/p>\n<p>This sledgehammer approach will cause terrible damage to many outstanding research programs, and it will destroy the careers of many young medical scientists just starting their research.
