Federal research funding worth billions of dollars has been released by the Trump administration after being previously frozen or held back from scientific institutions and agencies across the country.
Despite the restoration of these funds, many scientists are expressing concerns that the timing may be insufficient to rescue research projects that have already suffered significant setbacks during the funding freeze.
The delayed release of funding has left researchers questioning whether their work can recover from the interruption, with some indicating that the damage to ongoing studies may already be irreversible.
