Dear Colleagues, For those of you in the US, you might want to know that NIH issued a Request for Information about their National Resources and Biomedical Technology Optimization and Dissemination programs: https://www.research.net/r/NRRs_and_Biomedical_Technology_Optimization_and_D... Unfortunately, it closes tomorrow, but it is a short form. They are interested in experiences with existing resources, but are most interested in hearing ideas for expanding the programs to new technologies. Currently funded resources can be found here: https://www.nigms.nih.gov/Research/mechanisms/Pages/NIGMS-National-and-Regional-Resources-(R24)-Program---Funded-Resources.aspx National Institute of General Medical Sciences nigms.nih.gov Information about the Biomedical Technology Optimization and Dissemination program can be found here: https://www.nigms.nih.gov/grants/Pages/btod.aspx NIH would appreciate your thoughts about additional technologies that would benefit the community by support through these programs.
