IC Health Disparities Research Plans Behavioral and Social Sciences Research Components


The links below are to the behavioral and social sciences research components to the plans and activities of the NIH ICs as of early 2002 and updates prepared during 2004. As such, they do not necessarily describe the full extent of the ICs' plans and activities. Moreover, not all ICs provided information. Consequently, these should be seen as a partial reflection of the overall NIH's plans and activities in regard to health disparities research. Finally, these are unofficial working documents and not approved for public distribution. Full information is available from the NIH web pages on Addressing Health Disparities, including the NIH Working Group on Health Disparities with links to the ICs' complete plans.
