on the Presidential Early Career Award for Scientists and Engineers (PECASE) recipients
"I am pleased to announce 20 new PECASE winners associated with the National Institutes of Health. Although early in their scientific careers, these young researchers have already shown exceptional potential for productivity and innovation."
Eighteen NIH grantees and two intramural scientists have been selected by the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy to be among this year's 120 researchers to receive this presidential award, the nations highest honor for scientists at the beginning of their professional careers. Since the program began in 1996, NIH has now funded a total of 173 PECASE recipients. A complete list of NIH-supported PECASE recipients and program information is available at http://grants.nih.gov/grants/policy/pecase.htm. Awardees will be honored by President Barack Obama at a White House Ceremony later this year.
The White House announcement is available at: http://www.whitehouse.gov/administration/eop/ostp/pressroom/11052010
The Office of the Director, the central office at NIH, is responsible for setting policy for NIH, which includes 27 Institutes and Centers. This involves planning, managing, and coordinating the programs and activities of all NIH components. The Office of the Director also includes program offices which are responsible for stimulating specific areas of research throughout NIH. Additional information is available at http://www.nih.gov/icd/od/.
The National Institutes of Health (NIH) The Nation's Medical Research Agency includes 27 Institutes and Centers and is a component of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. It is the primary federal agency for conducting and supporting basic, clinical and translational medical research, and it investigates the causes, treatments, and cures for both common and rare diseases.
