Funding freeze pushes Harvard to the brink: Job cuts and euthanizing research animals now on the table, say shocked scientists

Harvard University faces a severe crisis as the Trump administration froze over $2.2 billion in federal funding, forcing research suspensions and potential layoffs. Vital projects, including tuberculosis vaccine trials and NASA's Mars mission research, are halted, jeopardizing both human health and animal welfare. The cuts impact numerous partner institutions, exacerbating the financial strain and threatening scientific progress.
