How Trump's policies are affecting early-career scientists--in their own words Every year, we recognize extraordinary young researchers on our Innovators Under 35 list. Recent honorees told us how they're faring under the new administration. Every year celebrates accomplished young scientists, entrepreneurs, and inventors from around the world in our Innovators Under 35 list . We've just published the 2025 edition . This year, though, the context is pointedly different: The US scientific community finds itself in an unprecedented position, with the very foundation of its work under attack . Since Donald Trump took office in January, his administration has fired top government scientists, targeted universities individually and academia more broadly, and made substantial funding cuts to the country's science and technology infrastructure .

The humble inventions that power our modern world wouldn't have been possible without decades of support for early-stage research. In December 1947, three physicists at Bell Telephone Laboratories--John Bardeen, William Shockley, and Walter Brattain--built a compact electronic device using thin gold wires and a piece of germanium, a material known as a semiconductor. Their invention, later named the transistor (for which they were awarded the Nobel Prize in 1956), could amplify and switch electrical signals, marking a dramatic departure from the bulky and fragile vacuum tubes that had powered electronics until then. They were asking fundamental questions about how electrons behave in semiconductors, experimenting with surface states and electron mobility in germanium crystals. Over months of trial and refinement, they combined theoretical insights from quantum mechanics with hands-on experimentation in solid-state physics--work many might have dismissed as too basic, academic, or unprofitable. Their efforts culminated in a moment that now marks the dawn of the information age.
