We’ve been learning more about the Trump administration’s proposal to cut billions of dollars in funding through the National Institutes of Health. That order is temporarily on hold. But if it proceeds, North Carolina’s universities and research institutions stand to individually lose millions of dollars in federal funding.

Due South’s Leoneda Inge talks with Holden Thorp, former chancellor of UNC-Chapel Hill, about the intersection of federal funding and academic research – and the potential impact of these cuts.
Guest
Holden Thorp, Editor-in-Chief of the Science family of journals and former chancellor of UNC-Chapel Hill (2008 – 2013)
