Summary

Trump’s proposed cuts to the National Institutes of Health (NIH) threaten U.S. biomedical research, forcing many scientists to consider leaving the country.

A 7 February policy would slash NIH funding by two-thirds, though a federal judge has temporarily blocked it.

Researchers relying on these grants fear for their jobs, with some already exploring options abroad.

The cuts particularly impact neuroscience, diabetes, and bird flu research, while also dismantling DEI initiatives.

Many scientists warn of long-term consequences for innovation and global health collaboration.

To migrate to germany you need a safe income, job, place to stay and health insurance. You can get the health insurance after you have a contract.

Problem about germany is. Its migration is very tought. Lose your job and you have to leave the country first day you become homeless, unless you are on the european bluecard
