While funding for many of UC\u2019s projects has been restored, the interruptions and uncertainty have plagued research that is poised to deliver vital new knowledge, including studies of aging, addiction, obesity, maternal and fetal health and Alzheimer\u2019s disease. And the federal government is considering further cuts to science funding in its budget for the coming year. This year, the Trump administration sent a budget request to Congress calling for deep cuts to federal science agencies \u2014 in some cases by up to half.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis is going to cripple science, and it is going to be disastrous if this continues,\u201d said Clarke in an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.reuters.com\/video\/watch\/idRW147207102025RP1\/?chan=science&amp;location=channel-item\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">interview this week<\/a>.
