ScienceDaily (Nov. 18, 2008) — A survey of scientists whose studies
became the focus of a public debate about NIH grant funding has found
that many of them engaged in self-censorship as a result of the
controversy. The study found that following the criticism of their
research, scientists removed politically sensitive language from grant
applications and stopped studying certain topics.
