Thank you so much for bringing that to all of our attention. Earlier today, I met with the chancellor of the University of California, Berkeley, and we discussed much of what you just brought to our attention. The research that has been undertaken at UC Berkeley has in the previous year, 2024, created 1,618 new small businesses directly as a result of the research and the effort that the university is making to nurture these startup businesses. These are the businesses of the future that are using the research, which you very correctly brought to our attention, that is being cut. That research has led to innovation, new technologies, and new solutions. Perhaps you would like to expand on that.
