  • What You Need to Know About the 2011 Revised Financial Conflict of Interest Regulation (HHS Only)
    • - Diane Dean (2011/11/23)
    • - Category : ESA (HHS Only)
    The integrity of the scientific record is critical to the conduct of science. Risks that compromise objectivity in research must be identified and managed and the highest ethical standards must be upheld. Therefore, it is imperative that all NIH-supported Investigators and their recipient Institutions comply with the requirements of the Financial Conflict of Interest (FCOI) regulation, which were revised on August 25, 2011.

    This mandatory training seminar will clarify the requirements of the revised regulation as well as Investigator, grantee institution and NIH staff roles and responsibilities. There will be time allotted for questions from the audience.

  • 2011 Kinyoun Lecture - A Public Health Approach to Infectious Disease Prevention and Control for the 21st Century
    • - Thomas R. Frieden, M.D., M.P.H., Director, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (2011/11/19)
    • - Category : Joseph J. Kinyoun
    Dr. Thomas R. Frieden, M.D., M.P.H., director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), will apply a public health view to preventing and controlling global diseases, such as food-borne illness, HIV, malaria and tuberculosis (TB), during NIAIDs 2011 Kinyoun Lecture. The lecture, titled ???A Public Health Approach to Infectious Disease Prevention and Control for the 21st Century,??? will be held on Thursday, November 17, at 2:00 p.m., in the Lipsett Amphitheater, Building 10.

    Frieden was named CDC Director and Administrator of the Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry in June 2009. Throughout his career, he has worked to control communicable and non-communicable diseases in the United States and around the world. From 1992???1996, Frieden led efforts in New York City to control TB, an initiative that reduced TB incidence in the city by half. From there, Frieden worked in India for five years assisting with national TB control efforts.

    During his tenure (2002-2009) as Commissioner of the New York City Health Department, Frieden championed tobacco control efforts that produced major declines in smoking, particularly among teens, implemented a diabetes tracking system in response to the city???s growing epidemic, took an aggressive public health approach to stemming the city???s HIV/AIDS problem, and oversaw regulations requiring restaurant chains to prominently post calorie information. While Health Commissioner, New York City also became the first U.S. city to ban artificial trans-fats from restaurants. Frieden is also credited with greatly expanding colon cancer screenings across various races and ethnicities in the city and establishing the largest community-based electronic health records project in the country.

    As CDC director, Frieden has focused on further enhancing CDC???s capacities in epidemiology, surveillance, and laboratory science; strengthening support for state and local public health; further increasing impact in global health; better using public health science to inform policies; and maximizing health impact through, among other efforts, focus on key winnable battles in public health including tobacco control, nutrition and food safety, health-care associated infections, HIV prevention, motor vehicle injury prevention, and teen pregnancy prevention.

    A graduate of the Columbia University College of Physicians and Surgeons and Mailman School of Public Health, Frieden completed infectious diseases training at Yale University. The recipient of numerous awards and honors, Frieden, who speaks fluent Spanish, has published more than 200 scientific articles.

    The Kinyoun Lecture honors Dr. Joseph J. Kinyoun, who in 1887 founded the Laboratory of Hygiene, forerunner of NIH, to study infectious diseases. NIAID sponsors the Kinyoun Lecture series, which highlights advances in the understanding of infection and immunity.

  • New Strategies for Decoding Genomes
    • - Dr. Jonathan Weissman, University of California-San Francisco (2011/11/18)
    • - Category : Wednesday Afternoon Lectures
    The ability to sequence genomes has far outstripped approaches for deciphering the information they encode. We have developed a suite of techniques based on ribosome profiling (deep sequencing of ribosome protected fragments) that dramatically expand our ability to follow translation in vivo. I will present recent applications of our ribosome profiling approach including the following: (1) Development of ribosome profiling protocols for a wide variety of eukaryotic and prokaryotic organisms. (2) Uses of ribosome profiling to globally monitor when chaperones, targeting factors or processing enzymes engage nascent chains. (3) Deciphering the driving force and biological consequences underlying the choice of synonymous codons.

    The NIH Wednesday Afternoon Lecture Series includes weekly scientific talks by some of the top researchers in the biomedical sciences worldwide.

  • STEP - Inflammation: The Root and Route of Chronic Diseases? (HHS Only)
    • - Jerry Phelps, Rodney Dietert, Charles Serhan and David Mosser (2011/11/17)
    • - Category : STEP (HHS Only)
    Heart disease, asthma, obesity, Alzheimer???s, arthritis, cancer and other conditions all may be related to or even caused by chronic inflammation. Many treatments are touted to reduce inflammation and prevent these diseases, but are they merely 21st century snake oil? Is there scientific validity to the theory that chronic inflammation contributes to such an abundance of diseases? Are there common inflammatory processes? If so, are there shared prevention methods that can stop disease progression? Come to this forum to learn the state of the science on inflammation and how your health may benefit.

  • HIV/AIDS 2011 and Beyond: Propelling the Next Generation of Research with Behavioral and Social Science
    • - Thomas Coates, UCLA; David Bangsberg, Harvard Univ; Wafaa El-Sadr, Columbia Univ (2011/11/16)
    • - Category : Conferences
    In recognition of 30 years since the first reported cases of HIV/AIDS in 1981, this symposium honors the significant contributions of behavioral and social science to HIV/AIDS research and advances made in understanding, treating and preventing the disease. Despite extraordinary advances, more is required to accomplish the ultimate goal of eradicating HIV/AIDS. Behavioral and social science research (BSSR) will continue playing a pivotal role in combating and eventually conquering the HIV/AIDS pandemic.

    Leading experts in HIV/AIDS research recently identified three primary research and implementation goals to end the pandemic:
    1. expanded testing

    2. innovative prevention tools

    3. a cure
    This symposium features presentations from world-renowned researchers highlighting ways in which BSSR is shaping the next generation of HIV/AIDS research and propelling efforts to achieve these goals.

    Organized and sponsored by NIHs Office of Behavioral and Social Sciences Research (OBSSR).
