The 偷拍偷窥 and 偷拍偷窥 Biology submitted testimony to the U.S. House Appropriations Committee on March 22 outlining its recommended budgets for major scientific funding agencies. Notably, the society requested a significant 10% increase in the budget for the National Institute of General Medical Sciences, which is part of the National Institutes of Health. 

“The ASBMB has a longstanding history of advocating for NIGMS and its researchers, and the majority of our members are funded by and rely on NIGMS to advance their research,” Sarina Neote, public affairs director of the ASBMB, said. “The rising cost of science has made research difficult for our members and all scientists. Therefore, appropriators must not only adjust the NIH budgets to keep up with inflation but also invest in the scientists leading the way in areas like biotechnology, biophysics and molecular biology who have a home in NIGMS and NIGMS-funded labs.” 

According to the ASBMB testimony, “The is the largest funder of fundamental biomedical research, as well as biomedical research training programs to support the bioeconomy and its workforce.” In fact, NIGMS awards more than . However, NIGMS has been historically underfunded, and its budget usually represents only . Over the , the NIGMS budget has increased only 21%, whereas other institutes such as the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases have received more than a 40% increase. A 10% boost for NIGMS, Neote, said is modest in comparison. 

The NIGMS is an established leader in funding excellent, innovative scientific researchers and has supported 60% of . In addition, the NIGMS is a leading institute funding research, which is one of President Joe Biden’s priorities as evidenced by his recent executive order “.”  

In addition, the NIGMS awards the most (more than 25%) supplements across the 32 centers and institutes at the NIH. Going by NIH’s recent , the funder intends to make diversity, equity, accessibility and inclusion a priority, and NIGMS is leading the way.  

The ASBMB also recently released a statement on Biden’s request. In it, the society expressed support for Biden’s proposed increases for the National Science Foundation and Department of Energy budgets. However, the society strongly opposed Biden’s NIH funding request, which proposed a minute , specifically citing its negative impact on NIGMS. 

The society recommended:

• $3.52 billion for the NIH NIGMS

• $8.9 billion for the Office of Science at the DOE

• $12 billion for the NSF 

In light of the rising cost of scientific research, the society called Biden’s NIH budget request “disappointing,” adding that “under Biden’s budget, the NIGMS would have to reduce funding for research project grants to offset inflation. This means scientists will have to abandon their projects. The U.S. research enterprise needs reliable, sustained investments in scientific funding, and Biden’s proposed budget for NIH falls short.” 

ASBMB's other appropriations asks this year are an increase in the DOE Office of Science budget to support research in clean energy, climate change, emerging technologies and more. The society’s recommendation is similar to Biden’s proposed 13.6% increase, which will fund biological and environmental research. 

In addition, the ASBMB showed support for continued funding for NSF that specifically bolsters the , which it said will “re-energize scientific research and training supported by the NSF” and “ensure the U.S. remains a global leader in innovation.” Its recommendation aligned with the 18.61% increase in Biden’s proposed budget.
