Craniofacial Development and the Quest for Preventing Birth Defects
NIDCR Clinical Research Fellowship Grand Rounds
Craniofacial abnormalities account for approximately one-third of all congenital birth defects, are a major cause of infant mortality, and dramatically impact national health care budgets. Postnatal treatment of malformation syndromes through comprehensive, well-coordinated and integrated strategies may provide satisfactory management of individual conditions, but rarely are they fully corrective. Therefore, considerable effort needs to be invested in developing prevention strategies, and this can only come from a thorough understanding of the normal events that regulate cran...

Medicine: Mind the Gap - The opportunities and challenges of using systematic reviews to summarize knowledge about “what works” in disease prevention and health promotions
Medicine Mind the Gap Seminar
Whether discussing priorities for comparative effectiveness research (CER) from a funder's or researcher’s perspective, understanding knowledge gaps, or setting guidelines for care, systematic reviews of existing research hold the promise of scientifically summarizing "what works" at any point in time. However, many of us are content to use nonsystematic methods to synthesize knowledge; non-systematic methods certainly use fewer resources, and in a given field experts believe they know the literature sufficiently to avoid the investment. Yet, by using a nonsystematic approach to summarizing...

Iron Screening and Supplementation of Iron-replete Pregnant Women and Children (Day 1)
Iron is well recognized as an essential nutrient needed for growth and development. Iron deficiency has serious consequences and, for this reason, is a public health concern particularly for pregnant women and young children (6-24 months). At the same time, ensuring sufficient intakes of iron must be balanced by avoiding too much iron as there are also consequences to excessive iron intake. The Office of Dietary Supplements (ODS) at the National Institutes of Health (NIH) is sponsoring an open public meeting titled, “Iron Screening and Supplementation of Iron‐replete Pregnant Women and Young Children,” September 28-2...

Medicine: Mind the Gap Seminar, Big Data and the Promise and Pitfalls When Applied to Disease Prevention and Promoting Better Health
Medicine: Mind the Gap Seminar
Big Data is an overused term, but it does speak to a break from the past in the amount and complexity of data being gathered and analyzed, as well as in the methods applied to that data. How disruptive will Big Data be in the long run to biomedical research and health care? Dr. Bourne will address this question in light of the Big Data to Knowledge (BD2K) initiative and other trans-NIH data science programs.
