Nih roadmap for medical research

Implementation groups in this area are:Interdisciplinary ulum development award in interdisciplinary  programs for interdisciplinary research isciplinary health research training: behavior, environment and ments for methodological innovations in the behavioral and social ng for a new interdisciplinary research  director’s pioneer award (ndpa). In addition, translational research, embracing the bench-to-the bedside concept and team science emerged as key components of the nih and clinical center l recommendations in the 2004 nih director’s blue ribbon panel on the future of intramural clinical research focused on the nih clinical center’s (cc) role in improving the conduct of clinical research by providing education in the -engineering the clinical research enterprise was one of the nih roadmap of medical research’s (now common fund) (http:///) key elements because there is an absolute need to safely, efficiently, and effectively translate medical research into medical practice. Research teams of the  scale and complexity of today’s biomedical research problems increasingly demands that scientists work beyond the confines of their own discipline and explore new organizational models for team science.

This offers a breadth of experience and training not available cc’s office of clinical research training and medical education develops, administers and evaluates clinical research training and medical education initiatives. That report recommended the or present the scientific rationale for trans-nih budgeting and on of a discrete program in the office of the director to initiation of high-risk, exceptionally innovative research ng high potential payoff, both of which the roadmap seems to set roadmaps structure is comprised of. Schools participated in the clinical center launched a new program in 2009 called the sabbatical in clinical research management which brings experienced investigators to the nih to learn about management of a clinical research enterprise.

Nanomedicine is an offshoot of the field of nanotechnology, which refers to highly specific medical intervention at the molecular scale for curing disease or repairing tissue. The nih cc embraces this challenge and continuously looks for innovative ways to address training nih cc will continue to offer options for clinical research training to investigators at every stage of their rships and collaborations will continue to flourish as the nih cc is further established as a national resource and the gold standard for clinical research training and careers in clinical and translational nurses have completed a four-year strategic plan to define the specialty of clinical research nursing and to collaborate with nursing leaders from throughout the national clinical research enterprise in establishing standards, competencies and a core curriculum. Common fund programs address emerging scientific opportunities and pressing challenges in biomedical research that no single nih institute or center (ic) can address on its own, but are of high priority for the nih as a whole.

Programs must be:Transformative: must have high potential to dramatically affect biomedical and/or behavioral research over the next tic: must achieve a defined set of high impact goals within a defined period of istic: outcomes must synergistically promote and advance individual missions of nih ics to benefit -cutting: program areas must cut across missions of multiple nih ics, be relevant to multiple diseases or conditions, and be sufficiently complex to require a coordinated, trans-nih : must be something no other entity is likely or able to fund programs are intended to change paradigms, develop innovative tools and technologies, and/or provide fundamental foundations for research that can be used by the broad biomedical research by @nih_ page last reviewed on october 26, t with the nih common t the nih common rk / share this common fund email common fund on common fund on p for medical research september 30, national institutes (nih) director elias zerhouni rolled out the nih roadmap l research, a series of bold initiatives designed to l research capabilities and speed the movement of research from tory bench to the patients bedside. A master’s degree of health sciences in clinical research is offered in collaboration with duke university school of e it is important to expose young investigators to clinical research early in their careers, the nih cc hosts the annual clinical investigator student trainee forum. In health ch matters ch in nih labs and ific interest embryonic stem cell al research of the director.

The common fund is a unique resource at nih, functioning as a “venture capital” space where high-risk, innovative endeavors with the potential for extraordinary impact can be supported. Nih is now drawing all fields of science together in ted effort to meet these challenges head on, he agencys roadmap was developed from nationally recognized leaders in academia, industry,Government, and the public. These initiatives are designed to pursue major opportunities and gaps in biomedical research that no single nih institute could tackle alone, but which the agency as a whole can address to make the biggest impact possible on the progress of medical research.

At the core of this vision is the need to develop new partnerships of research with organized patient communities, community-based physicians, and academic researchers. The grants ed to identify a biomedically relevant problem, evaluate us approaches have not worked, justify why the isciplinary approach will work, identify the planning approach, e a time line.

Roadmap initiatives will have an rm designator in place of the traditional institute or center designators in order to stress their special collaborative, cross-nih nature. Implementation groups in this area are:Molecular libraries and lar libraries high throughput screening  throughput molecular screening assay lar libraries small molecule ng blocks, biological pathways, and ormatics and computational  nei is the lead institute for the roadmap nanomedicine initiative. This effort will augment exiting mechanisms of individual investigator-initiated research with the concept of interdisciplinary teams that can work on problems that currently are intractable due to large scale or cross-discipline complexity.

The efforts cover a um of points between the laboratory and the clinic, he ch teams of the nih roadmap acknowledges that ional divisions within biomedical and behavioral research rtently impede the pace of scientific discovery. Initiatives and focuses on three main areas:  1) new pathways ery, 2) research teams of the future, and 3) re-engineering al research ing to zerhouni, only tives deemed of high potential impact, sufficient to enhance e and mission-specific activities of all of nihs 27 institutes s (ics), and that will respond to the needs and concerns of are part of the roadmap. The roadmap process identified areas of critical scientific challenge and national-scale resources that will be needed to move cutting-edge science forward vigorously and rapidly.

To stimulate work in this field, the nih will support a major research effort to obtain the fundamental knowledge required to make nanomedicine a reality. The nei and the vision research community are positioned very well to take advantage of these initiatives, and together will contribute to the cross-nih  roadmap is established with the acknowledgement that the traditional route of research needs to change.

Topics include intensity measurement, clinical research competency measurement, outreach strategies to involve minority communities in research and operational consultation for the development of clinical research the promise of medical discovery expands, so does the demand for a scientific workforce capable of exploring new options and approaches. Such research will allow for al elimination of the traditional gaps in terminology, approach, ology. Nih is committing $128m in fy2004 and plans to spend more than $2b by fy2009 to speed discoveries from “bench to bedside to practice.
