US researchers and doctors rally for science against Trump cuts
Investigadores y médicos de EE. UU. se movilizan por la ciencia contra los recortes de Trump
US researchers and doctors rallied against cuts they say threaten science and public health. Protesters warned that firings and reductions to budgets and grants at government agencies that fund health, climate, scientific and other research put not only the future but the present at risk. They gathered in cities and near federal offices to call for the protection of funding, saying lost staff and canceled grants will damage patient care, environmental monitoring and ongoing experiments. Demonstrators urged elected officials to reverse the measures and to maintain sustained investment in research, arguing that strong scientific institutions are essential to public health, safety and long-term progress.
