Nick and I were at the Pisgah Astronomical Research Institute last year having a discussion about funding for basic science research with Dr. Bob Hayward. He was discussing how we are really missing the boat by cutting basic science research because it isnt seen as flashy. Heres a great video on the importance of funding basic science research and how it leads to the development of new treatments for diseases and other important discoveries. The next time you want to donate money to cure something, ask yourself if it is better sent to an advocacy organization or to the scientists in the trenches. Then, think about where your tax dollars to go.
