Trump order prompts Canadian cancer research group to scrub gender-inclusive language from U.S.-funded trials

A Canadian cancer research group is scrubbing gender-inclusive language from documents associated with U.S.-funded trials to comply with an executive order signed by President Donald Trump, in a move that critics say acquiesces to political overreach and undermines scientific integrity.The Canadian Cancer Trials Group (CCTG), based at Queen’s University, works with academic groups around the world, and is the only non-American partner of the U.S. National Clinical Trials Network (NCTN). Six trials out of 170 will be affected.
