Leaders around the world appear to be struggling to respond to an American administration
that is no longer constrained by pretending to care about human lives, the law, or the cost of its hubris.
In Europe, only Spain refused to allow the U.S. to use its bases to attack Iran,
while France, Switzerland, and Slovenia condemned Trump’s attacks as a violation of international law,
as did Russia, China, Chile, Venezuela, and Pakistan.

SNF (Switzerland) restrictions proposed: only 1 concurrent research grant per PI (plus maybe one coop), only 1 proposal per year.
🔥 Hot take (since I'm not at all operating like this currently): I actually think this might be a good idea? It would curb some of the biggest "research mills", where one PI has a huge pyramid scheme underneath them, and might encourage more careful grant proposals, slower science. And might even put more emphasis back into the basic research funding (instead of the grant lotteries)?
(Maybe naive, I know, and I have no idea how this would be implemented)
