Trump Budget Would Shake Medical Research And Health Training Programs

In related news, Mayo Clinic's CEO says that he urged the Trump administration to maintain funding for research and to take foreign doctors into account in the administration's immigration policy.

President Donald Trump鈥檚 budget outline would have widespread implications for health-care training and research in Arizona, including at the state's universities. The budget would eliminate $403 million in training programs for nurses and health professionals. The budget would, however, maintain training programs that place practitioners in communities with a shortage of health professionals. (Alltucker and Ryman, 3/22)

Mayo Clinic鈥檚 chief executive told Minnesota business leaders Wednesday that he has pressed the Trump administration to maintain federal research funding and keep the nation鈥檚 borders open to patients needing care and doctors who seek training. ...聽Immigration restrictions proposed by the Trump administration have presented potential obstacles for foreign doctors in certain nations to practice and train in the United States. (Olson, 3/23)
