  4. What’s New @ NIH? Adaptive Strategies in the Context of Changing Science and Public Health Elias A. Zerhouni, M.D., Director National Institutes of Health

  5. Challenge of Rising U.S. Health Expenditures Biomedical Research Must Deliver 20% National Health Expenditures as a Percent of GDP Actual Projected 18% 16% 14% Percent of U.S. GDP 12% 10% 8% 1988 1994 2003 2009 1980 1982 1985 1991 1997 2000 2006 2012 2015 Source: http://new.cms.hhs.gov/NationalHealthExpendData/downloads/nheprojections2004-2014.pdf

  6. What is NIH’s Core Strategic Vision? • Transform medicine and health from a Curativeto a Preemptive paradigm • Accelerate fundamental research into our understanding of complex biological systems and their regulation at the earliest molecular stages of disease. • Remove barriers to translation of these findings from the bench to the bedside • Provide the evidence and knowledge base to enable our healthcare systemto intervene before disease strikes and not after!

  7. Points of TensionManaging in Challenging Times? • Largevs Small Scale science? • Infrastructure vs hypothesis driven RO1s? • Basic vs. translational research: What is the right balance? • Peer review : what to do given demand/supply imbalance? • How does NIH address public health issues • How do we best communicate with constituencies • How do we continue to support the best intra and extramural science by the best scientists ? • What should be at the top of our agendas?

  8. Road Map II: Strategic Initiative Inclusion Criteria The overarching goal of all Roadmap initiatives is to accelerate the discovery and translation of scientific knowledge into public health benefits. Roadmap is conceived of as a five to ten year ‘incubator space’ for NIH initiatives that meet all of the following criteria: • Is the proposed initiative truly transforming –could it dramatically affect how biomedical and/or behavioral research is conducted over the next decade? • Will the outcomes from the proposed initiatives synergistically promote and advance the individual missions of the Institutes and Centers to benefit health? • Does the proposed initiative require participation from NIH as a whole and/or does it address an area (s) of science that does not clearly fall within the mission of any one IC or OD program office? • Is the proposed initiative something that no other entity is likely or able to do, and is there a public health benefit to having the results of the research in the public domain?

  9. Schedule for Roadmap II July 3 consultation meetings with extramural scientists August Submission of initiative concepts from IC September 2 additional consultation meetings Pilot test ‘responsiveness determination’ process on nominations to date October Release RFI for comments idea nominations from the broad public/research community November Mini-Retreat to review and prioritize idea nominations

  34. NIDA-Sponsored Mini-Convention at the 2006 Meeting of the Society for Neuroscience

  35. Conclusions • Fundamentally, as an Institute, NIDA is doing well in protecting early career investigators in this era of shrinking funding opportunities. • NIDA is currently promoting innovative research via a number of standard mechanisms. • Improvements on all of these fronts can be made by NIDA continuing activities such as: • collecting accurate data on new investigators • increasing use of mechanisms that stress innovation and nurture early investigators (e.g., B/START) • educating PIs that training/mentorship must be present in all multi-grant or large grant environments • increasing the funding and scope of Mentored K Awards • establishing an Innovation Committee • increasing awareness of the various trans-NIH initiatives, such and the Roadmap and Blueprint.

  36. Conclusions/Summary • DBNBR has established strong research programs central to the mission of NIDA: to bring the power of science to bear on problems of drug abuse. • DBNBR plays a critical role in translation of basic science conducted in their division to studies of human patients conducted in other NIDA divisions • Opportunities to enhance basic science include: • Investment in emerging areas of social neuroscience and epigenetics • Strengthened dissemination of services • Continued fostering of the careers of new investigators • Continued emphasis on the “revolution” in the ways science will be conducted in the future
