37:41Now PlayingWhat if Elon Musk’s funding cuts delayed the next big medical breakthrough?
On this episode of the Tara Palmeri Show, vascular surgeon Dr. Anahita Dua reveals how Elon Musk’s drastic slashing of NIH research budgets jeopardized critical blood thinner research at Harvard — research that could save countless lives. We dive into how the U.S. university system drives medical innovation, why pharmaceutical companies often prefer treatments over cures, and the political forces behind these devastating funding decisions.
If you care about the future of medical research and who really controls the science that impacts us all, this episode is a must-watch.
What do you think about private influence over public research funding?
Could these cuts cost lives? Let me know in the comments below.
