Why I miss Bill Clinton by Amy Dugan, PhD

The president's 2010 budget calls for $76.8 billion to fund the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), down from $78.4 billion in 2009 funding. The budget request did not provide any specific funding guidelines for the National Institutes of Health (NIH). Most other departments in the federal government will see a funding increase that exceeds inflation.

If you are a scientist you know Foundations and Charities are broke because the Financial collapse eliminated their big donor base and Bush dried up federal science funding leaving many of us without a future in medical research. Obama should not only increase NIH funding for cancer and embryonic stem cells but overall funding for medical science needs to increase like it did under Bill Clinton. As of Dec 2010 or sooner, Shriners Hopsital in Cincinnati will stop all animal reaserch funding, eliminating my job.
