Introducing Highlighted Topics: A Centralized and Simple Resource to Learn About Research Areas of Interest to NIH
NIH announces a new centralized and simplified resource, called NIH Highlighted Topics, that informs the research community about particular areas of science of interest to NIH. Visiting this resource early and often when conceptualizing your research ideas will help ensure you are aware of some of NIH’s latest scientific interests. It also aims to help facilitate innovation and discovery through a strong focus on more investigator initiated driven research.
Subscribe to Highlighted Topics to receive updates on these topics here.
