Comment Re:Too bad they cancelled NIH research (Score 0) 98
Bollocks. Currently less than 10% of NIH grant proposals are funded. If the 15% overhead change goes into effect, the most likely outcome will be that the overall funding will remain constant and 15% of the NIH grant proposals will be now funded. One major flaw in the existing tenure system is that often those researchers that manage to stay funded through the tenure process can't manage it one tenured.
