Farewell 2021, Time to Bring in 2022
It has been quite a year. Francis Collins, NIH Director for over 12 years, stepped down after an extraordinary tenure, a tenure marked by “a calm hand, a scientific mind, and a deep commitment to the well-being of all Americans.” The stresses and ongoing uncertainty of the COVID-19 pandemic continued in almost roller-coaster like fashion; at this writing, we are in the midst of the Omicron surge. As some COVID-19 grant-related flexibilities remain in place, anxieties persist about intermediate- and long-term effects of the pandemic on research productivity, mental health, financial well-being, and family responsibiliti...

Join Us for the 2021 NIH Virtual Seminar on Program Funding and Grants Administration
The NIH Regional Seminars, which NIH has held once or twice a year for decades, have been great opportunities to help researchers, research administrators, trainees and others to better understand the NIH grants process. I have always enjoyed attending and being a part of the entire experience. We in the Office of Extramural Research (OER) value the mutual learning, the questions asked, the energy and ideas, and all that can be learned interacting with attendees.
Last year, like so many other conference hosts around the world, NIH shifted to a virtual seminar platform. I confess, we were not sure exactly what would happen;...

Translational and Basic Science Research in Early Lesions (TBEL) Coordinating and Data Management Center (U24 Clinical Trial Not Allowed)
Funding Opportunity RFA-CA-21-055 from the NIH Guide for Grants and Contracts. The TBEL program aims to integrate basic and translational cancer research concepts to examine the direct causal relationships and interactions of an early lesion, its microenvironment, and host-systemic factors as co-organizers of tumor initiation (or suppression) and malignant progression. The ultimate goals of the TBEL program are to further understand the biological and pathophysiological mechanisms driving or restraining precancers and early cancers and facilitate biology-backed precision prevention approaches. The responsibilities of th...

2021 HHS Small Business Program Conference: Diverse Perspectives SEEDing Impactful Innovations
As I noted in my March 1 Open Mike post NIH Stands Against Structural Racism in Biomedical Research, the NIH seeks to do its part to end structural racism and to ensure greater diversity in all aspects of the biomedical workforce. One longstanding area of concern has been our small business programs, which account for over $1 Billion in annual investments. Unfortunately, entrepreneur scientists from diverse backgrounds remain under-represented in the Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) and Small Business Technology Transfer (STTR) programs.
We are working to identify ways to lower barriers for all n...
