About The Study: The monetary consequences of National Cancer Institute recissions is substantial despite the limited relevance of cancer research to ideological controversies. Disrupted grants affected most states and many public and private institutions. Many grant terminations affected research trainees and junior faculty, suggesting that these terminations not only interrupted the continuity of research studies, but also jeopardized career trajectories of early-stage investigators, with potential downstream consequences on the research workforce and innovation pipeline.
