Did you know that when you donate to a stranger you get a voucher for a relative who might need a #kidney in the future? Nephrologist @AnnaGaddy describes her nondirected donation experience.

No one is talking about the impact of multi year funding. First, this provides no oversight and accountants. Second, this will effectively cut the number of grants by 75-80%. The impact of this cannot be overstated.
The Senate is deliberating over the NIH budget this week. But, it's not just the total $$ that's an issue..but that NIH leadership wants to front load multi-year grants and not distribute them over 4/5 years...this will lead to very few NEW grants awarded = shutting down labs.
