Johns Hopkins University, one of the country\u2019s leading centers of scientific research, said on Thursday that it would eliminate more than 2,000 workers in the United States and abroad because of the Trump administration\u2019s steep cuts, primarily to international aid programs.<\/p>\n

The layoffs, the most in the university\u2019s history, will involve 247 domestic workers for the university, which is based in Baltimore, and an affiliated center. Another 1,975 positions will be cut in 44 countries. They affect the university\u2019s Bloomberg School of Public Health, its medical school and an affiliated nonprofit, Jhpiego.<\/p>\n

Nearly half the school\u2019s total revenue last year came from federally funded research, including $365 million from the U.S. Agency for International Development. In all, the university will lose $800 million in funding over several years from U.S.A.I.D., which the Trump administration is in the process of dismantling.<\/p>\n

Johns Hopkins is one of the top university recipients of the funding that the administration is aiming to slash. And it appears to be among the most deeply affected of the major research institutions that are reeling from cuts \u2014 or the threat of cuts \u2014 to federal money that they depend on for research studies and running labs.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

In a statement on Thursday calling it a \u201cdifficult day,\u201d Johns Hopkins said it was \u201cimmensely proud\u201d of its work on the projects, which included efforts to \u201ccare for mothers and infants, fight disease, provide clean drinking water and advance countless other critical, lifesaving efforts around the world.\u201d<\/p>\n

In a statement last week describing Johns Hopkins\u2019s reliance on federal funding, Ron Daniels, the university\u2019s president said, \u201cWe are, more than any other American university, deeply tethered to the compact between our sector and the federal government.\u201d<\/p>\n
