Refreshing NIH ’s Genomic Data Sharing Policy
Dr. Lyric Jorgenson, Acting Associate Director for Science Policy and Acting Director of the NIH Office of Science Policy Guest post by Dr. Lyric Jorgenson, Acting Associate Director for Science Policy and Acting Director of the NIH Office of Science Policy, originally released on the Under the Poliscope blog. We’ve all heard the ancient expression that “the only constant in life is change.” While this phrase was first spoken about 2500 years ago, it is a remarkably insightful way of describing the most important aspect of policymaking; being able to adapt to a changing landscape.

Reaffirming NIH ’s Commitment to Workforce Diversity
Marie A. Bernard, M.D., Chief Officer for Scientific Workforce Diversity, NIH Diversity is inextricably tied to the success of the NIH mission, thus ensuring diversity within the extramural biomedical research workforce is of utmost importance. We are aware that NIH’s recent decision to rescind a “Notice of Special Interest” (or NOSI) – intended solely to call attention to the presence of a specific funding opportunity announcement and encourage researchers from underrepresented groups to apply – may have caused some to question this commitment. While the spirit of the NOSI was laudable, it may have led to an imp...
