The National Institutes of Health says it will pull medical research funding from universities with diversity and inclusion programs and any boycotts of Israeli companies, according to a policy note issued Monday.
The agency “reserves the right to terminate financial assistance awards and recover all funds” if grant recipients do not comply with federal guidelines barring diversity and equity research and “prohibited boycotts,” the notice stated.
The policy applies to “domestic recipients of new, renewal, supplement, or continuation awards” issued starting April 21, the notice said.
The directive mirrors funding freezes the Trump administration placed on Harvard and Columbia universities over DEI programs and the schools’ responses to antisemitism on campus. The latest policy change could have broad implications for research universities across the US.
