Sounds like they intended to study how systemic racism could be linked to black people having twice the likelihood of developing AD, not shocked they in particular decided to defund it

Well they already invested millions into these particular studies & i am pretty sure studying the factors that could contribute to increased rates of alzheimer’s would directly help us understand the root cause of the disease

I don’t get how it’s DEI? Just because it studies how things like systemic poverty contributes to manifestation of illness?

Idk it just seems like Trump admin is arbitrarily labeling stuff as DEI just because it somehow has to do with black people
