A federal judge issued a temporary restraining order Monday night blocking a new Trump administration policy that would cap an important form of funding for medical research at universities, medical schools, research hospitals and other scientific institutions.
Twenty-two states had filed a federal lawsuit in the U.S. District Court in Massachusetts seeking to block the move. The case will be heard on Feb. 21.
The new policy would limit National Institutes of Health research funding for "indirect costs" to 15% of grants. That's far below what many institutions have been getting to maintain buildings and equipment and pay support staff and other overhead expenses.
