“Behind every major breakthrough, every technological advancement, every lifechanging innovation, there’s a team of researchers fueled by curiosity and driven to make a difference.” 🔬 Research that changes lives doesn't happen by accident. Without F&A (Facilities & Administrative) funding scientists wouldn’t have the infrastructure needed to turn ideas into life-saving discoveries. The future of research depends on Congressional support. Watch this video from UC San Diego to learn why it’s crucial to protect the foundation of scientific discovery in America. Then contact your representatives! 🔗 https://bit.ly/4bOkjtM #NeuroAdvocate
