Global Scientists Condemn Trump Administration's Assault on Science

Massive budget cuts, censorship, and dismissals under Donald Trump's leadership alarm researchers worldwide over the future of science and international collaboration.

Thousands of U.S. federal scientists have been abruptly dismissed, with key research agencies like the NIH, CDC, and NOAA facing severe staffing and funding reductions.
Censorship efforts include banning terms like 'gender,' 'LGBT,' and 'diversity' in research, and deleting climate-related data from government websites.
International scientific collaboration is under threat, with critical U.S. contributions to climate monitoring and medical research now in jeopardy.
European scientists and organizations have expressed deep concern, warning that these actions undermine global progress and could spread to other nations.
Protests and initiatives like 'Stand Up for Science' aim to raise awareness of the attacks on scientific freedom and advocate for stronger protections.
