UCLA’s chancellor, Julio Frenk, has said, it received a notice that the federal government is suspending certain research funding to the university. Frenk pointed out that hundreds of grants may be lost, adversely affecting the work of UCLA researchers, faculty and staff through Washington’s decision.
