Not a compelling argument. Due to federal and state policies there is a great deal bureaucracy involved in running a research project. Too much, but mandated largely by the federal government. Many institutions have to supplement even NIH grants with institutional funds. I do. NIH does not pay full salary support for many junior and senior scientists even if they work 100% on NIH projects.
That is indirect support by the institution to NIH. 15% will kill academic medical research — the fountain head of a much or most progress we have made in preventing and treating a wide range of diseases. |
