@ArrayManta@hubermanlab@NIH 💯 Costs for using core facilities will go up and other costs will be passed along. So I'm not sure you'd end up with more money for research in the way that you're thinking.
mGems are short, thought-provoking reviews on high-interest topics in microbiology. Read the first 3 papers in this series: on #H5N1, viral entry, and the damage-response framework. #mbio https://t.co/oDvO7DvmOK
@RBamh1 Complete nonsense. Contract Research Organizations charge 10x for what I can do in my lab. University research is the heart of innovation in the US.
