Judge temporarily blocks DOE’s move to slash university research funding
A group of universities led by the American Association of Universities (AAU) acted swiftly to oppose a policy action by the Department of Energy that would cut the funds it pays to universities for the indirect costs of research under DOE grants. The group filed suit Monday, April 14, challenging a what it termed a “flagrantly unlawful action” that could “devastate scientific research at America’s universities.”
By Wednesday, the U.S. District Court judge hearing the case issued a temporary restraining order effective nationwide, preventing the DOE from implementing the policy or terminating any existing grants.

We have demonstrated the synthesis of poly(4-trimethylsilylstyrene) by living polymerization techniques. The use of cupruous bromide, di-n-nonylbipyridine, and phenethylbromide to polymerize neat 4-trimethylsilylstyrene at 120°C results in a narrow molecular weight polymer. The method improves on the polymer specifications made by conventional free radical methods.
