Five new buildings across the United States, including Founders Church of Religious Science in Los Angeles, will receive funding from the Conserving Black Modernism initiative, a grant program to preserve historic modern buildings created by Black architects and designers,

All told, the National Institutes of Health (NIH) and the National Science Foundation withdrew or placed on hold almost $4 billion in funding. And that money may be gone for the foreseeable future because the White House’s proposed budget for the next fiscal year slashes support for those agencies themselves by 40% and 56%, respectively.

Congress’s proposed budgets would preserve more research spending than the president’s. It’s a rare rebuke from Republicans to the White House’s efforts to gut funding for several research support agencies.

A Senate spending bill would restore funding for dozens of NASA science missions threatened with cancellation in the administration’s 2026 budget request.

By emphasizing scientific uncertainty above other values, political appointees can block any regulatory action they want to.

As a high schooler attending Owasso Public Schools, I got the full Oklahoma high school football experience, which led me to pursue a degree in exercise and sport science at the University of Tulsa. I developed a passion for biomechanics research and worked on a state-funded project to help reduce fireground injuries in Tulsa firefighters using biomechanical measures to inform new testing and interventions.

Representing its eighth funding round since launching in 2004, the oversubscribed fund had originally targeted a $600m close.

This is a rather cheeky point being made by Matt Ridley, that government funding of science and research doesn't in fact find very much. And given that it doesn't in fact find very much it also ...

Every year since 1991, the National Ocean and Atmospheric Administration has offered competitive grants to a small number of scientists. The awards, under the Climate and Global Change Postdoctoral Fellowship Program, have supported more than 230 researchers, many of whom have gone on to be leaders in global climate and atmospheric research.

There is no statewide curriculum and no requirement to pass a science course to graduate. That means the quality of science instruction depends largely on a student’s zip code and the luck of the draw.
