The Office of Intramural Research (OIR) is responsible for oversight and coordination of intramural research, training, and technology transfer conducted within the laboratories and clinics of the National Institutes of Health (NIH). NIH's intramural facilities are located on the main campus in Bethesda, MD, as well as in Research Triangle Park, NC (NIEHS); Baltimore, MD (NIDA, NIA, and NHGRI); Frederick, MD (NCI); Hamilton, MT (NIAID); and Phoenix, AZ (NIDDK). Organizationally, the individual laboratories and sections answer to the 27 Institutes and Centers of NIH which conduct applied and basic biomedical research in particular disease or subject areas. OIR's responsibility is to develop and implement NIH-wide projects, policies, standards, and review for Intramural research, training, and technology transfer.
In addition to the immediate staff of the
Office
of Intramural Research, OIR is
comprised of:
NIH's Deputy Director for Intramural Research
(DDIR), Michael
M. Gottesman, M.D., heads the
OIR. The work of the office is developed and carried out
in conjunction with the Scientific Directors of NIH's Institutes and
Centers. The Board of Scientific Directors meets twice monthly with
the DDIR, September through June, and monthly in July and August.
Policy decisions and changes are documented in the Board's
minutes.
New policy developments are highlighted in two publications of the
OIR: The
NIH
Catalyst,
a bimonthly newsletter for and about the Intramural Research Program,
and the DDIR's
Bulletin Board, an
electronic newsletter published approximately biweekly. The DDIR's
Bulletin Board is available to intramural staff on NIH's web site
or by Listserv subscription. To subscribe, send an email message to
Listserv@list.nih.gov. The body of your message should read:
