PUBLIC POLICY NEWS
The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) recently signed by President Obama includes $10.4 billion in two-year, supplemental funding for the National Institutes of Health (NIH). ASPN's Washington representatives last week attended a briefing with Dr. Raynard Kington, NIH Acting Director, where he provided an overview of the agency's evolving plan for distributing this funding to the research community.

Click here for a summary of Dr. Kington's remarks.

NIH will hold briefings for the research community as their plan takes shape, though Dr. Kington would not specify the timing of these briefings, or the rollout of the final strategy.
