Biotech & Research

SHERIDAN, WYOMING - December 02, 2025 - As the United States grapples with record-setting government shutdowns and budget fights, the country's biotech and research ecosystem is confronting a deeper structural problem: federal science funding is increasingly unstable, putting early-stage innovation, talent pipelines and long-term competitiveness at risk. For an industry built on long horizons and high-risk discovery, interruptions to programs such as NIH grants and Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) contracts are more than a temporary setback-they threaten the foundations of America's leadership in biopharma innovation.
