What changes should happen? The @NIH should own 2% of all IP that emerges from its grant funding. The influx of $ would likely sustain and grow the NIH in perpetuity.
Ideas scaring the academic establishment; could happen soon.1) Capping “overhead” funds for university admins on @NIH grants .2) Taxing of university endowments .3) Making those working at NIH itself write standard grants .4) age-out of grant competition after 65?. Thoughts?.

When good pathways go bad…Tonight at #ISEH2024 the amazing trio of Fanny Zhou (3214), Kent Lam (3236) & Dave Kim (3102) present posters on how adaptive proteostasis pathways get hijacked to promote the emergence, progression and resistance of clonal hematopoiesis & AML.

Loss of proteostasis is a hallmark of aging…but did you know that it is also severely challenged during development? This morning at #ISEH2024, rising star Dr. Helena Yu will tell you how developing stem cells meet these challenges & its impact on the future of transplants.
