    The NAAIDC provides second level peer review of grant applications and discusses concept clearances and other matters pertaining to grant applications for NIAID. Their website offers information about meeting dates, council members, and has an archive of past meeting minutes. At each meeting, Dr. Anthony Fauci, NIAID Director, presents information about the Institute, including new staff, status of the budget, status of research and other areas of interest to the council. A guest speaker also does a presentation. At the February 1, 2010, meeting, Dr. Tony Scarpa will speak on the status of the new peer review system.

  • From Impulsivity to Compulsivity: Neural and Neurochemical Basis
    • - Robbins, Trevor W.
      National Institutes of Health (U.S.) (2010/11/18)
    • - Category : Neuroscience
    Research in Dr. Robbins lab spans the areas of cognitive neuroscience, behavioral neuroscience and psychopharmacology. Main work focuses on the functions of the frontal lobes of the brain and their connections with other regions. These brain systems are relevant to such psychiatric and neurological disorders as Parkinson???s and Huntington???s disease, dementia, schizophrenia, depression, drug addiction, obsessive-compulsive disorder and attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder, as well as frontal lobe injury. Dr. Robbins lab uses a variety of methods for studying these systems, including sophisticated psychological paradigms for investigating cognitive functions and impulsivity in both normal subjects and patients; these include the computerized CANTAB battery. Also employed is MRI or PET to determine where in the human brain various cognitive operations are carried out. They are also interested in establishing how drugs work to produce changes in brain chemistry, and how these affect behavior.

  • NIH State-of-the-Science Conference: Enhancing Use and Quality of Colorectal Cancer Screening - Day 1
    • - National Cancer Institute Office of Medical Applications of Research, NIH (2010/11/18)
    • - Category : Conferences
    Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the second-leading cause of cancer-related deaths in the United States. But, over half the people at average risk for the disease do not take advantage of screening tests such as fecal occult blood testing, sigmoidoscopy, or colonoscopy. Be part of a pivotal discussion that will help answer critical questions related to enhancing the use and quality of CRC screening.

  • Stem Cell to T Cell: Molecular Anatomy of Commitment
    • - Dr. Ellen Rothenberg (2010/11/18)
    • - Category : Wednesday Afternoon Lectures
    For blood stem cells to generate differentiated progeny, the multipotent cells must traverse a complicated decision tree to determine the pathways their development will take. We know something about the branching structure of these decision trees now. One major branch leads to red blood cell and platelet development, another to phagocytic cells and inflammatory cells, and another to many kinds of lymphocytes. We also know many of the molecular mediators that play important roles in the generation of particular blood cell types, both extracellular signals and transcription factors. However, for the most part characterization of each pathway to date has focused on a given blood cell type in isolation from the others, shedding light on the requirements for differentiation but not providing much insight into lineage choice itself. This gap in knowledge is a concern especially since multipotent cells that have not yet committed to a particular fate are suspended in a state of regulatory instability that is likely to be a hotspot for leukemic transformation.

    The early development of T cells provides a particularly clear opportunity to dissect the mechanisms that guide cells through a series of alternative fate decisions and into commitment. In this talk, we will discuss the role of Notch signaling in initiating the T-lineage gene expression program; the stepwise progress of lineage restriction as the cells respond to Notch and endogenous regulators; and the transcription factor interactions in the cells that causally determine these major shifts in lineage identity and survival requirements. The process that the cells undergo involves several ???layers??? of regulatory change rather than a simple response to a single ???master??? switch. The talk will review insights from gain- and loss-of-function regulatory perturbations, genome-wide mapping of dynamic epigenetic change, and genetic and biochemical evidence for the identity of newly recognized commitment factors. A key focus is the importance of correctly timed repression, not only of the regulators for alternative fates, but also of the stem-cell regulatory program legacy itself.

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