It seems that the biomedical field is hit a lot harder both in that article and in the Stats News article linked: https://www.statnews.com/2025/02/19/trump-funding-freeze-gra.... For STEM the big question is whether how NSF overhead reduction and likely even DOE and DOD grants will be impacted. As these funds are needed for promised tax cuts its like those cuts to those grant programs will happen too IMO.
What’s happening to the contractor-run DOE labs such as los alamos? Are these being reduced or unfunded as well? Hell of a lot of good work and yes, software, comes from these places.

As these are related to national defense and nuclear security, I've heard they are largely safe.
