President Calls for 5.6 Percent NIH Budget Increase in 2001
President Clinton asked Congress to appropriate more than $18.8
billion to NIH in fiscal year 2001. The request represents a $1 billion
or 5.6 percent increase over the agency's current budget.
Genome Director Explains By Robert Bock
"You cannot micromanage an institute of 400 people," said NHGRI director Dr. Francis Collins. "You need to find the right people for the right jobs, and turn them loose."
Collins passed on this management advice during a recent brown bag lunch
seminar for members of NIH's Management Cadre Program. The program is
designed to train highly motivated employees to help meet future leadership needs
at NIH. Its monthly brown bag seminars feature senior NIH staffers, who describe
their management roles and functions. (Additional information about the
Management Cadre Program is available at http://mcp.nih.gov/.)
