Trump administration slashes research into LGBTQ+ health: NYT
- The Trump administration's proposed 2026 budget plans to cut significant federal support for research and education on traumatic brain injuries, impacting programs managed by the CDC.
- On April 1, the CDC placed all five employees responsible for overseeing the federal program addressing traumatic brain injuries on paid administrative leave.
- The cuts would end $8.25 million in funding for brain injury research and concussion education, threatening programs like Heads Up, used by hundreds of thousands of youth sports coaches.
- Dr. Owen Perlman warned that reducing the budget could undo many years of advancements, while a CDC official voiced concern about losing the entire team supporting the program.
- If Congress does not renew funding, experts warn this could cause a domino effect undermining TBI research and prevention efforts critical for lifelong patient care.
