As a fellow Mainer, I share your concerns about the devastating impact these funding cuts will have on scientific research in Maine. It's inspiring to hear about your journey from Waterville to Rutgers University and your dedication to using research to improve the health of Mainers and all Americans. I agree that it's crucial for us to speak up and advocate for continued funding for NIH and NSF. Research not only saves lives but also drives economic growth and innovation. I will join you in contacting our elected representatives to ensure that they understand the importance of supporting scientific research in Maine and beyond. Thank you for your dedication to advancing knowledge and improving health outcomes. I look forward to the day when you can bring your research expertise back to Maine and make a positive impact on our community. Let's stand together for science and the future of research in our state. Sincerely, [Your Name]
