Request for Nominations of Potential Reviewers To Serve on the 
Disease, Disability, and Injury Prevention and Control Special Emphasis 
Panel (SEP)

    The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) is soliciting 
nominations for possible membership on the Disease, Disability, and 
Injury Prevention and Control Special Emphasis Panel (SEP) in the 
National Center for Injury Prevention and Control (NCIPC).
    The Disease, Disability, and Injury Prevention and Control Special 
Emphasis Panel provides advice and guidance to the Secretary, 
Department of Health and Human Services (HHS); the Director, Centers 
for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), and the Administrator, Agency 
for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry (ATSDR) regarding the concept 
review, scientific and technical merit of grant and cooperative 
agreement assistance applications, and contract proposals relating to 
the causes, prevention, and control of diseases, disabilities, 
injuries, and impairments of public health significance; exposure to 
hazardous substances in the environment; health promotion and 
education; and other related activities that promote health and well-
being.
    Nominations are being sought for individuals who have expertise and 
qualifications necessary to contribute to the accomplishment of NCIPC 
SEP objectives. Reviewers with expertise in the following research 
fields for injury and violence prevention are sought to serve on the 
NCIPC SEPs, for research and evaluation related, but not limited to: 
Child abuse and neglect, prescription drug overdose, intimate partner 
violence, motor vehicle injury, older adult falls, self-directed 
violence, sexual violence, traumatic brain injury, youth sports 
concussion, and youth violence. Reviewers with expertise in the 
following methodological fields for injury and violence prevention are 
also sought to serve on the CDC SEP for NCIPC programs: economic 
evaluation, etiology, implementation and translation, intervention 
research, policy evaluation, program evaluation, qualitative research 
design, quantitative research design, statistics, and surveillance.
    Members and Chairs shall be selected by the Secretary, HHS, or 
other official to whom the authority has been delegated, on an ``as 
needed'' basis in response to specific applications being reviewed with 
expertise to provide advice. Members will be selected from authorities 
in the various fields of prevention and control of diseases, 
disabilities, and injuries. Members of other chartered HHS advisory 
committees may serve on the panel if their expertise is required. 
Consideration is given to professional training and background, points 
of view represented, and upcoming applications to be reviewed by the 
committee.
    Information about nominated potential reviewers will be maintained 
in the NCIPC Reviewer and Advisor Database. The work of reviewers' 
appointed to NCIPC SEPS includes the initial review, discussion, and 
written critique and evaluation of applications. This work will enable 
the CDC/NCIPC to fulfill its mission of funding meritorious research 
that provides vital knowledge about underlying risk and protective 
factors and strategies for violence and injury prevention http://www.cdc.gov/injury/index.html.
    The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services policy stipulates 
that

committee membership be balanced in terms of points of view represented 
and the committee's function. Appointments shall be made without 
discrimination on the basis of age, race, ethnicity, gender, sexual 
orientation, gender identity, HIV status, disability, and cultural, 
religious, or socioeconomic status. Nominees must be U.S. citizens 
appointed to serve on a CDC SEP and can be full-time employees of the 
U.S. Government. Current participation on CDC federal workgroups or 
prior experience serving on another federal advisory committee does not 
disqualify a reviewer, except for service on the Board of Scientific 
Counselors, NCIPC. However, HHS policy is to avoid excessive individual 
service on advisory committees and multiple committee memberships. 
Reviewers appointed to the SEP, CDC are not considered Special 
Government Employees, and will not be required to file financial 
disclosure reports.
    Nominees interested in serving as a potential reviewer on a SEP, 
CDC for NCIPC programs should submit the following items:
     Current curriculum vitae, including complete contact 
information (name, affiliation, mailing address, telephone number, and 
email address).
    Nomination materials must be postmarked by March 31, 2017 and sent 
by U.S. mail to: NCIPC Extramural Research Program Office (ERPO): 
Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 1600 Clifton Road NE., 
Mailstop F-63, Atlanta, Georgia 30329 or to the ERPO Mailbox 
[email protected].
    The Director, Management Analysis and Services Office, has been 
delegated the authority to sign Federal Register notices pertaining to 
announcements of meetings and other committee management activities for 
both the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the Agency for 
Toxic Substances and Disease Registry.
