Comment on NSF halts grant awards while staff do second review

Comments

As if review timelines aren't already way too long. I'm currently waiting 9 months for a small $250k grant (edit: waiting to hear if I've even gotten it. I barely remember what the proposal was about now).

I can tell you most scientists are just trying to do their jobs, studying hard stuff. Unfortunately, we do not really have the resources to fight anything.

Tough situation, and lots of scientists are pretty frightened. Many junior scientists (myself included) are looking at leaving the country.
