Trump vs. Science: are we screwed? ft. Dr. Nikki Maphis
Donald Trump's administration is playing out Project 2025 in REAL TIME. It is having horrifying impacts on the science community. He has frozen funding and taken away grants for scientists across America. This is a MUST listen podcast about the state of science in America. If he continues what he is doing, science will implode, medicine will implode, and hospitals will close - causing chaos. That could be his intention, but why? Today we talk to Dr. Nikki Maphis about what is going on, her personal relationship to this story - as well as her fascinating research into Alzheimer's disease. Hosted on Acast.
