Trump Administration Reportedly Halts Most Activities of Federal Healthcare Research Agency

The Trump administration has effectively shut down most of the activities of the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ), a federal agency dedicated to improving medical practice and patient safety. This move includes the termination of at least 104 grants, with approximately 75% of the agency's staff reportedly fired or having quit, raising concerns about the future of federal investment in biomedical research and healthcare quality.
