APPENDIX C PUBLIC HEARING ON NATIONAL NEEDS FOR BIOMEDICAL AND BEHAVIORAL RESEARCH PERSONNEL May 3, 1993 Washington, D.C. PROGRAM A continuing goal of our national research effort is to sustain the quality of biomedical and behavioral research. To achieve this goal we must maintain research training environments of high quality and sufficient stability to as- sure the future availability of skilled research personnel. The National Research Service Awards Act of 1974 es- tablished a Federal program of predoctoral and postdoctoral training support to meet national needs for biomedical and behavioral scientists. At the same time, Be Act requested Hat the National Academy of Sciences undertake a continu- ing study of personnel needs in this area and that they re- port on a regular basis to the U.S. Congress, the National Institutes of Health, and related agencies regarding future training needs in this area. The National Research Council, the operating arm of the National Academy of Sciences, recently established the Committee on National Needs for Biomedical and Behav- ioral Research Personnel to conduct a study of this topic. Following its first meeting, the Committee arranged to con- vene a one-day Public Hearing to explore four overarching questions: 1. What is He most significant challenge we face today in He United States for maintaining an adequate supply of qualified scientists to sustain and advance health research? 2. What improvements might be made in the National Research Service Awards program to assure a continuing supply of skilled investigators in the biomedical and behav- ioral sciences in He coming years? 3. What steps might be taken to improve the effective- ness of Be National Research Service Award program in recruiting women and minorities into scientific careers? 4. What features of the National Research Service 105 Award Raining grant might be strengthened to assure He maintenance of high quality research Gaining environments? The Committee is also aware of significant changes that have come about in employment opportunities for bioscien- tists in industry and other types of nontraditional research settings. The Public Hearing provides a forum for explor- ing this issue as well. AGENDA 8:00 a.m. Registration/Co~ee 8:45 a.m. Welcome and Introduction of Committee/StaJ0f · Ira Hirsh and John D.

This book assesses the nation's future needs for biomedical and behavioral scientists and the role the National Research Service Awards (NRSA) program can play in meeting those needs. The year 1994 marks the twentieth anniversary of the National Research Act of 1974 (PL 93-348), which established the NRSA program. In its twenty years of operation, the NRSA program has made it possible for many thousands of talented individuals in the basic biomedical, behavioral, and clinical sciences to sharpen their research skills and to apply those skills to topics of special concern to the nation, such as aging, hypertension, the genetic basis of disease, acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS), cancer, environmental toxicology, nutrition and health, and substance abuse.
