This chart unfortunately says it all. NIH funding for new research grants under Trump 2025 is falling far far behind past administrations. This isn’t just slowing science - it is undermining America’s global leadership in research and innovation.

This is evidence that targeting the peripheral nervous system is a viable approach. It marks an important step in treating pain, yet exploration of various approaches and targets remains necessary.
Vertex says it will seek FDA approval this year for a new kind of pain drug - one that aims to stop pain by blocking sodium channel NaV1.8 in the peripheral nervous system, which doesn’t carry the addiction and other risks of opioids: cnn.com/2024/01/30/health/ex…
