Re. ARE - Is the demand softening due to cuts to NIH funding? My local PBS news ran a segment today on how loss of NIH funding is hurting research labs and many of the budding scientist careers.

Here is a snippet of the issue from another source:

" These funding cuts are hitting early-career scientists hardest. Graduate schools are shrinking class sizes, and many labs can’t promise postdoctoral positions. Where researchers once moved from grant to grant to build careers, there may be fewer opportunities for some young scientists.

When these young researchers look at a career in science and don’t see a clear path forward, many may consider other options, taking jobs in industry or abroad, or leaving the field altogether. In a recent Nature poll, 75% of U.S. scientists who responded said they’re looking for jobs abroad, mostly in Canada and Europe.

And even if funding eventually improves or new sources appear, those scientists who leave might be unlikely to return. Without a steady pipeline of investigators, the flow of new ideas dries up. This means fundamental research — the kind that fuels tomorrow’s breakthroughs — could slow down in the U.S.
