MIT takes Trump to court over research cuts

The school, in Cambridge, Massachusetts, benefitted for decades from research advancements steered by John Trump, who engineered new tools to treat cancer through radiation therapy, according to the National Academy of Engineering.

Massive federal funding cuts proposed by his nephew's administration have prompted MIT to join two major lawsuits in recent months.

Cornell University has joined a lawsuit against the U.S. Department of Energy and DOE Secretary Chris Wright, alleging cuts to its research grants are violating federal regulations. The Ithaca, N.Y.-based Ivy League school said it’s long engaged in research sponsored by federal agencies for studies that are critical to the U.S. economy and national security.
