    The NIH will hold a Vendor Pay Forum on June 29, 2009. The Forum will be presented to approximately 20 vendors. The Forum is intended to be an educational and information exchange opportunity for vendors. NIH staff will be presenting on all portions of the acquisition process, from requisitioning through payment. Vendors will have the opportunity to ask questions of a panel of the presenters, and to discuss the answers with them. The vendors also are being asked to provide questions prior to the Forum so these can be addressed either at the Forum or in materials prepared and put on an appropriate Web site, such as the SILK Web site that currently includes information for vendors or on SharePoint.

    Topic areas for the Forum include:
    • Introduction and Background
    • Requisitioning
    • Awards ??? Purchase Orders
    • Awards ??? Contracts
    • Receiving
    • Vendor Information
    • Proper invoices/Commercial accounts

    NIH Work Life Seminar

    Communicating effectively in both professional and personal settings is essential in todays fast paced and dynamic environment.

    In many situations at both work and home, effective communication is the ingredient for success. Communication requires respect to ensure clear messaging, and active listening to increase knowledge of the persons or situations involved. We can all develop and enhance these skills to positively impact the outcome of our interactions, even those that involve criticism and disagreements. It is important to have a personal communication strategy and tools ready for use in difficult interactions. Join the WLC for an engaging and stimulating review of what it takes to communicate effectively with diverse audiences including coworkers, supervisors, family and friends.

    A key aim of the meeting is to introduce NIH staff to the exciting field of systems biology and the activities of the National Centers for Systems Biology. On the first day of the meeting, PIs (or other senior investigators) will define systems biology in the context of their Centers work and then provide compelling examples of what they have achieved. Each Center also will have a presentation from a junior investigator. The talks will be followed by a discussion led by a panel of PIs whose purpose is to engage the audience. The second day of the meeting will include a discussion of common activities and community building. Among the topics that will be discussed are (i) common elements of systems biology and possibilities for cooperation, (ii) relevant training opportunities, (iii) coordination of outreach efforts, and (iv) creation of a portal for the Centers and other community activities.

    Stem cells can develop into different cell types. They may offer a renewable source of replacement cells to treat diseases, conditions, and disabilities.

    Learn more about stem cells. On March 9, 2009, President Obama issued Executive Order 13505, entitled Removing Barriers to Responsible Research Involving Human Stem Cells. Read About the Executive Order. A key to implementation of the new policy is use of The NIH Human Embryonic Stem Cell Registry. The Registry lists human embryonic stem cell lines that may be used in NIH-supported research. After the stem cells are listed in the registry, they may be used for Federally-funded research. Steps and criteria for listing cells in the registry, along with other important details concerning their use, are given in the New Guidelines for Human Stem Cell Research.

    The Interagency Autism Coordinating Committee (IACC) coordinates all efforts within the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) concerning autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Through its inclusion of both Federal and public members, the IACC helps to ensure that a wide range of ideas and perspectives are represented and discussed in a public forum.

    The IACC mission is to:
  • Facilitate the efficient and effective exchange of information on ASD activities among the member agencies
  • Coordinate ASD-related activities
  • Increase public understanding of the member agencies activities, programs, policies, and research by providing a public forum for discussions related to ASD research, screening, education, and interventions


  • IACC meetings are open to the public and include presentations and discussions about member activities and projects of the IACC. The meetings also include scientific presentations from investigators in the field of ASD research. A portion of each meeting is reserved for public comment. A summary of each meeting is posted on the meetings & events page of the IACC website.

  • HIT and the Transformation of Clinical Research
    • - Schulman, Kevin.
      National Institutes of Health (U.S.) (2010/11/18)
    • - Category : Special
    The ARRA provides for a significant investment in health information technology (HIT) for the US. One of the required features of this investment is the ability for meaningful health information exchange between providers. While many have postulated the potential benefits of HIT over the last several years, there is still controversy about the use of this technology. However, with ARRA, the commitment to transformation of this sector is clear. In assessing the benefits of HIT, one of the exciting applications is to transform clinical research, especially for lifestyle or behavior studies. In this talk, well review the potential benefits of HIT overall and in the clinical research setting, including the concept of personal health records. We???ll then explore a novel study design enabled by HIT that has compelling economic and scientific advantages. The risks and benefits of this approach will be examined. Seminar to be given by Dr. Kevin Schulman, M.D. Professor of Medicine at Duke University Director, Center for Clinical and Genetic Economics

    NIH Health Disparities Seminar Series

    The National Center on Minority Health and Health Disparities (NCMHD) sponsors the monthly NIH Health Disparities Seminar Series. The forum disseminates information on advances, gaps, and current issues related to health disparities research. It features national and international health disparities research experts including many who are funded by the NCMHD, the other NIH Institutes and Centers, and federal agency partners. The theme for the July seminar series is the social determinants of health.

    Place matters: where we live, work, study and play is critically important for health ??? and more so for children. This presentation will summarize research on the negative effects of racial and socioeconomic segregation on health, and highlight some of the challenges and opportunities in applying research to policy and practice to address health inequities and improve health opportunities.
