NIH bans grants for schools that boycott Israeli companies

The US National Institutes of Health (NIH) has implemented a new policy that prevents colleges and universities from receiving funding if they boycott business relations with Israel. The policy also prohibits eligible schools from operating diversity, equity, inclusion, or accessibility programs. This move is part of a broader anti-DEI offensive across the Trump administration. The new rules align with a January executive order by US President Donald Trump that labeled DEI programs as 'illegal' and has led to efforts to dismantle federal DEI initiatives. The new NIH policy is the latest restriction placed on US campuses, which have already faced funding cuts and increased scrutiny over their responses to antisemitism.
