Just learned about the new proposed budget cuts to NSF through a friend today. NSF funding is poised to lose almost $160 million in funding if the house bill is passed. This may not seem like a lot in the grand scheme of things but that’s a very important $160 million, because it cultivates the kind of new technologies that drive economic growth and fund important research to conserve species in decline. Follow the link to contact your senators and ask them to stop this bill. It takes about 4 minutes to fill out, and could do a world of good for scientific research.
