The steep reductions proposed by the U.S. administration for federal R&D funding for FY26 did not happen thanks to bipartisan champions in Congress. Many organizations, including @aaas, emphasized how detrimental it would be to our nation to gut this funding. (1/3)
Read the full report from @AlessZimm, project director of the AAAS R&D Budget and Policy Program: aaas.org/news/fy-2026-r…
With FY26 federal appropriations bills now signed into law, the R&D funding outlook is brighter than initially feared. Compared to the drastic cuts that were proposed in the spring, the bills show some increases, flat funding, or relatively small reductions for R&D.
Chart the course for your scientific journey at the 2026 AAAS Annual Meeting! Build your network, sharpen your skills, and explore new funding opportunities. Let’s navigate the future of science together. Register now 🔗 meetings.aaas.org
