Why was there a need for a Roadmap?
Position NIH to address evolving public health challenges
Accelerate the pace of discoveries Develop more rapid translation from
laboratories to patients and back

Acute to Chronic Conditions
Evolving Public Health Challenges
Health Disparities
Emerging Diseases
Aging Population
Biodefense

NIH opportunities and challenges… Revolutionary and rapid changes in
science Rapid convergence of science Increasing breadth of NIH mission and
growth
NIH is a complex organization with many units (27 institutes and centers, multiple program offices) structured by disease, organ, life stage and discipline
![Page 5: The NIH Roadmap for Medical Research .](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062321/56649db05503460f94a9d761/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
NIH Roadmap Goals
Accelerate basic research discoveries and speed translation of those discoveries into clinical practice
Explicitly address roadblocks that slow the pace of medical research in improving the health of the American people
![Page 6: The NIH Roadmap for Medical Research .](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062321/56649db05503460f94a9d761/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
How was the Roadmap developed?
Extensive consultations with stakeholders, scientists, health care providers
Discussions addressed: What are today’s scientific challenges? What are the roadblocks to progress? What do we need to do to overcome
roadblocks? What can’t be accomplished by any single
Institute – but is the responsibility of NIH as a whole?
![Page 7: The NIH Roadmap for Medical Research .](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062321/56649db05503460f94a9d761/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
What is the NIH Roadmap? A framework of priorities the NIH as a
whole must address in order to optimize its entire research portfolio.
A set of initiatives that are central to extending the quality of healthy life for people in this country and around the world.
A vision for a more efficient and productive system of biomedical and behavioral research.

New Pathways to Discovery Development of research tools (molecular
probes and novel assays) to facilitate studies of biology and pathophysiology
Advances in biological research leading to the identification and validation of novel biological targets for therapeutics development
Discovery of biological markers to monitor disease progression and to predict treatment response

New Pathways to DiscoveryNational Centers for Biomedical Computing Partnerships of:
Computer scientists Biomedical computational scientists Experimental and clinical biomedical and
behavioral researchers Focused on software rather than hardware Each National Center to have a specialty
area with driving biological projects Partnerships between individual
investigators and National Centers

* Research Teams of the Future
Including: Encouraging Multi- and Interdisciplinary teams Supporting larger, coordinated, resource
sharing teams Preserving investigator-initiated strategy Promoting investigators to take creative,
unexplored avenues of research

“How does the NIH Roadmap benefit research funded by an NIH IC?” Speeding removal of major and
fundamental roadblocks common to all diseases
Institutes working together to solve issues
This is a common trans-NIH pool of transforming investments open to all disease areas and all investigators for competition
