Curious thing, though. It's not clear to me science has bee 'saved' if health and medical research gets slogged. 

I mean, I'm no medical researcher, but I would have thought there's just a little bit of science conducted under of the auspices of NHMRC funding... I'm seeing a bit of misleading (if perhaps accidental) reframing going on here. 

Lot's of science ain't called science!
