INCLUDE Building a Diverse Community for Down Syndrome Research
Join the National Institutes of Health (NIH) and the INCLUDE Project Team on September 20 and 21, 2022 as we host a virtual workshop to inform our efforts to enhance diversity and inclusion in Down syndrome research.
The INCLUDE project was launched in 2018 to address health concerns and quality-of-life needs for people with Down syndrome. The goals of INCLUDE are to:
-Understand health conditions that are common in people with Down syndrome
-Improve collaboration on Down syndrome research
-Increase the numbe r of people studying Down syndrome
-Involve more people with Down syndrome and their families — especially tho...

NHLBI - State of the Science in Transfusion Medicine 2022 Workshop
Hosted by The National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI) of NIH and the Office of the Assistant Secretary of Health (OASH) of the Department of Health and Human Services, the purpose is to identify current basic, translational, and clinical research priorities, that if addressed in the next 3-10 years, would increase and diversify the volunteer blood donor pool, identify which blood products from which donors would best match the needs of specific recipient populations, and help ensure safe and effective transfusion strategies. Six working groups have identified draft research priorities: 1) Blood donors and the sup...

NINDS/NICHD Workshop on Cerebral Palsy
This is a practice session for the Workshop on Cerebral Palsy.
Cerebral Palsy, the most common cause of childhood disability, arises as a consequence of abnormal neurodevelopment or prenatal/perinatal injury to the parts of the brain involved in controlling movement. In the past, delayed diagnosis of cerebral palsy precluded timely delivery of therapeutic interventions early in life, the period in which treatment may be most effective for neurodevelopmental disorders. However, even with advances that have enabled earlier diagnosis of cerebral palsy, treatment options remain limited. To help address these challenges facing...

Pathways to Prevention Workshop: Nutrition as Prevention for Improved Cancer Health Outcomes (Day 3)
As many as 80% of people with cancer experience malnutrition, but nutritional screening and interventions aren't standard parts of outpatient cancer care in the United States. More research is needed to inform development of guidelines and services for the prevention and treatment of cancer-associated malnutrition. Workshop speakers will discuss the current scientific evidence on how nutritional interventions affect cancer health outcomes. After the workshop, an independent panel will draft a report on evidence gaps and identify priorities for future research.For more information go tohttps://prevention.nih.gov/P2P-Nutriti...
