Message from the Secretary
"VA's Research and Development Program is an essential part of our mission to provide cutting-edge health care to our nation's Veterans. As we work to transform VA, three fundamental attributes mark the starting point for framing a 21st-Century Organization: people-centric, results-driven, and forward-looking; These attributes require continued and increased emphasis on discovery, innovation, and best-practices."
