Vamsi Velcheti: Demand congress to support NIH and NCI to keep pace with biomedical inflation and foster growth

Vamsi Velcheti, Professor of Medicine and Director of Thoracic Oncology Program at New York University, shared on X:

“Innovation in cancer treatment starts with robust funding. Demand congress to support $51.303B for National Institute of Health (NIH) and $7.934B for National Cancer Institute (NCI) to keep pace with biomedical inflation and foster growth.

Staggering amount of vital cancer research remains unfunded due to insufficient resources. Support increased funding for NIH, NCI, and Advanced Research Projects Agency for Health (ARPA-H) to turn possibilities into realities.”
