National Academies Faces Downsizing After Losing $40 Million in Federal Contracts Under Trump Administration
The National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine is preparing for significant organizational downsizing following the loss of federal contracts valued at $40 million. The advisory body, which provides expert guidance on science and technology issues, has been impacted by cuts to its funding agreements under the Trump administration.
The organization announced that it is bracing for what it described as “a fairly radical downsizing” in response to the financial shortfall. The affected contracts reportedly accounted for a substantial portion of its operational budget. These developments come as the National Academies continues its role in advising policymakers on critical scientific and technological matters. Further details regarding the scale of layoffs or restructuring plans have not yet been disclosed.
