Can they set different rates for private vs. public universities? The UH grant office was already severely understaffed even before this cut.
Last year, $9B of the $35B that the National Institutes of Health (NIH) granted for research was used for administrative overhead, what is known as “indirect costs.” Today, NIH lowered the maximum indirect cost rate research institutions can charge the government to 15%, above what many major foundations allow and much lower than the 60%+ that some institutions charge the government today. This change will save more than $4B a year effective immediately.

@UH_Econ PhD applications are up nearly 50% this year, with the biggest surges coming from China and Nigeria. Curious—are others seeing similar trends? #econtwitter

Doing work on children hospitalization. Came across this study suggesting that >25% of children under age 1 have been hospitalized in UK, Italy, Finland (exc. birth related). It looks too high? any reason? What's the rate in US? #econtwitter

@leightjessica Not survey, but I have used DeepL to translate a codebook (from French to English). It works pretty well, though not 100% correct. Def. need human review.
