Dr. Jen Gunter

People now with all the, you know, the universities and their funding with the NIH and all this other stuff that's happening and grants being pulled away.

If you've just finished your PhD in STEM, especially in sort of a medical field, would you want to do your postdoc in the U.S.

?

Or would you say, okay, well, what if my grant gets pulled?

Or would you go, well, there's this lab in Amsterdam that also does what I'm interested in.

So I'm gonna see if they'll take me, right?

So are we gonna have this brain drain?

We're gonna have these people, because they can't get jobs.

I mean, I've heard of people had their PhDs canceled because the grants are all gone.

So what are all of these things mean?

And I think that we're looking at catastrophic harm

And we're just talking about medicine.

I mean, whatever's happening in medicine, you got to assume they're putting the same people in in climate science and all these other things.

I mean, you know, they got rid of, I believe, if I'm correct saying this, the whole scientific arm of the EPA.

So you can dump whatever into the water, I guess that's okay, but we got rid of.

food diet cheerios it's all a distraction it's bread and circuses so yeah yeah so i mean i'm very i always feel very like doom and gloom and it's like man we should like go for drinks now um and uh but i i think that do you think the medical community is doing enough to combat this i don't know what they can do i think that um

There's problems.

There's people who, you know, you say you work at a university and the university is thinking of kowtowing to the government.

If you speak up, are you going to lose your position?

Like it puts people in really difficult positions.
