SUMMARY:

The Division of Program Coordination, Planning, and Strategic Initiatives (DPCPSI) in the Office of the Director, National Institutes of Health (NIH) is seeking public comment regarding its proposal to transfer the Office of Nutrition Research (ONR) from the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases to DPCPSI in the Office of the Director, NIH. The program offices in DPCPSI share a common mission of identifying emerging scientific opportunities, rising public health challenges, or scientific knowledge gaps that deserve special emphasis. The proposed reorganization would align this important office with offices having similar trans-NIH functions.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Pursuant to the NIH Reform Act of 2006 (42 U.S.C. Sec.281 (d)(4)), DPCPSI will launch public website information at https://dpcpsi.nih.gov/proposed-reorg-ONR-transfer to further encourage public discussion of the proposal to reorganize.
