Desc	SEE SCHEDULE O, PROGRAM ONE, RESEARCH PARTNERSHIPSPROGRAM ONE - RESEARCH PARTNERSHIPS - SINCE ITS ESTABLISHMENT NEARLY TWO DECADES AGO, THE FOUNDATION FOR THE NATIONAL INSTITUTES OF HEALTH (FNIH) HAS BECOME A LEADER IN FORGING POWERFUL PUBLIC-PRIVATE PARTNERSHIPS THAT ADVANCE BIOMEDICAL SCIENCE. WITH THE CAREFUL CRAFTING AND EXECUTION OF CUTTING-EDGE INITIATIVES, THE FNIH HELPS THE NATIONAL INSTITUTES OF HEALTH (NIH) TURN DISCOVERY INTO IMPROVED HEALTH. HIGHLIGHTS FROM FNIH'S 2015 PROGRAMMATIC PORTFOLIO ARE REFERENCED BELOW.FINDING BETTER MARKERS OF OSTEOARTHRITIS ONSET AND PROGRESSION OSTEOARTHRITIS DEVELOPS OVER TIME AS A JOINT'S "CUSHION" OF CARTILAGE BREAKS DOWN AND BONE ENDS RUB TOGETHER, CAUSING PAIN AND LOSS OF FUNCTION. KNEE OSTEOARTHRITIS (OA) IS THE LEADING CAUSE OF DISABILITY IN OLDER ADULTS AND AFFECTS ABOUT 250 MILLION PEOPLE WORLDWIDE. RIGHT NOW, OA IS DIAGNOSED ONLY AFTER PEOPLE HAVE DISCOMFORT, AND THE STANDARD TOOL IS AN X-RAY SHOWING JOINT SPACE NARROWING. BUT THE DISEASE PROCESS BEGINS LONG BEFORE SYMPTOMS APPEAR; IDENTIFYING THOSE AT RISK AND INTERVENING EARLIER COULD HELP AVOID COSTLY JOINT REPLACEMENTS. EARLIER DIAGNOSIS MAY SOON BE POSSIBLE THANKS TO THE OSTEOARTHRITIS BIOMARKERS PROJECT, A $3.4 MILLION STUDY LED BY THE FNIH BIOMARKERS CONSORTIUM IN PARTNERSHIP WITH THE NATIONAL INSTITUTE OF MUSCULOSKELETAL AND SKIN DISEASES, THE U.S. FOOD AND DRUG ADMINISTRATION (FDA), UNIVERSITIES AND PHARMACEUTICAL COMPANIES TO IDENTIFY BIOMARKERS (BIOLOGICAL MARKERS) OF KNEE OA ONSET AND PROGRESSION. USING DATA FROM 5,000 HIGH-RISK PATIENTS GATHERED THROUGH THE NATIONAL INSTITUTES OF HEALTH OSTEOARTHRITIS INITIATIVE, ANOTHER PUBLIC-PRIVATE PARTNERSHIP THAT CREATED AN OPEN-ACCESS REPOSITORY OF MEDICAL IMAGES AND BLOOD AND URINE SAMPLES, THE FNIH-LED TEAM HAS NARROWED THOUSANDS OF POTENTIAL BIOMARKERS DOWN TO A SUBSET THAT CORRELATES WITH KNEE OA PROGRESSION. THESE INCLUDE BONE AND CARTILAGE CHANGES VISIBLE ON MRI AND PROTEINS DETECTABLE IN BLOOD AND URINE. THE BIOMARKERS CAN PAVE THE WAY TOWARD IDENTIFYING PEOPLE AT RISK AND DEVELOPING TREATMENTS THAT TARGET THE DISEASE PROCESS.IDENTIFYING NEW TARGETS TO DRIVE DRUG DEVELOPMENT LAUNCHED IN 2014, THE ACCELERATING MEDICINES PARTNERSHIP (AMP) IS A FIVE-YEAR, $230 MILLION EFFORT JOINING THE RESOURCES OF THE FNIH, THE NATIONAL INSTITUTES OF HEALTH (NIH) AND THE FDA WITH THOSE OF SEVERAL NONPROFIT ORGANIZATIONS AND BIOPHARMACEUTICAL COMPANIES TO DEVISE A MORE PRECISE APPROACH TO EARLY-STAGE DRUG DEVELOPMENT. THESE ORGANIZATIONS ARE SHARING EXPERTISE AND DATA TO IDENTIFY THE BIOLOGICAL PATHWAYS UNDERLYING FOUR DEVASTATING DISEASES-TYPE 2 DIABETES (T2D), RHEUMATOID ARTHRITIS/SYSTEMIC LUPUS ERYTHMATOSUS (RA/SLE) AND ALZHEIMER'S DISEASE (AD)-AND THEN VALIDATE THE BEST CANDIDATES FOR TARGETING NEW MEDICINES. AMP'S VISION IS TO EMPOWER RESEARCHERS TO PURSUE NEW TREATMENTS WITH BETTER ODDS OF MOVING THROUGH THE CLINICAL TRIALS PIPELINE SUCCESSFULLY. CURRENT THERAPIES FOR THESE CONDITIONS CANNOT REVERSE THE DISEASE PROCESS NOR STOP ITS PROGRESSION. IN 2015, THE AMP-T2D PROJECT PUBLICLY LAUNCHED A KNOWLEDGE PORTAL THAT HAS AMASSED LARGE AMOUNTS OF GENETIC AND CLINICAL DATA FROM AN ARRAY OF STUDIES ON PEOPLE WITH TYPE 2 DIABETES. THE PORTAL'S DATA COVER A WIDE VARIETY OF ETHNICITIES, INCLUDING AFRICAN-AMERICAN, EAST ASIAN, SOUTH ASIAN, EUROPEAN AND HISPANIC, AS WELL AS DIABETES-RELATED CARDIOVASCULAR AND KIDNEY COMPLICATIONS. RESEARCHERS WILL BE ABLE TO SEARCH AND ANALYZE THE DATA TO IDENTIFY GENETIC VARIANTS ASSOCIATED WITH INCREASED RISK FOR, OR PROTECTION AGAINST, THE DEVELOPMENT OF DIABETES AND ITS COMPLICATIONS. IN TURN, THESE CAN BECOME POTENTIAL TARGETS FOR NEW TREATMENTS. THE AMP-RA/SLE PROJECT HAS DEVELOPED NEW METHODS FOR ACQUIRING AND PROCESSING TISSUE FROM THE KIDNEYS AND SYNOVIAL MEMBRANES (LININGS OF JOINTS) AND TRAINED RESEARCHERS TO USE THESE METHODS, MAKING MULTI-SITE CLINICAL STUDIES POSSIBLE. THIS TISSUE, ALONG WITH BLOOD AND URINE SAMPLES, IS BEING UTILIZED TO GENERATE A NEW PUBLIC DATA REPOSITORY TO BE LAUNCHED IN 2016. FOR THE FIRST TIME, PARTNER ORGANIZATIONS WILL BE ABLE TO COLLABORATE ON GENOME-WIDE ANALYSIS OF THESE SAMPLES TO BETTER UNDERSTAND THE MECHANISMS BEHIND THE DESTRUCTION CAUSED BY RHEUMATOID ARTHRITIS AND SYSTEMIC LUPUS ERYTHMATOSUS, BOTH DISEASES IN WHICH THE BODY'S IMMUNE SYSTEM DESTROYS HEALTHY TISSUE. AMP-AD INCLUDES TWO DIFFERENT PROJECTS. PROJECT A SEEKS TO VALIDATE EXISTING BIOMARKERS AS POSSIBLE INDICATORS OF RESPONSE TO TREATMENT IN PEOPLE WITH ALZHEIMER'S DISEASE. JUST ONE EXAMPLE IS PET IMAGING OF TAU PROTEINS IN THE BRAIN, WHICH HAS BEEN ADDED TO TWO MAJOR NIH-FUNDED PHASE II/III DRUG TRIALS. PROJECT B IS WORKING TO ACCELERATE THE DISCOVERY OF NEW THERAPEUTIC TARGETS, MOVING BEYOND THE TRADITIONAL FOCUS ON THE BUILDUP OF PROTEINS SUCH AS AMYLOID AND TAU IN BRAIN TISSUE. RESEARCHERS BUILD A DEEPER UNDERSTANDING OF THE NETWORKS IN WHICH THESE NOVEL TARGETS OPERATE AND VALIDATE THEM IN DIFFERENT MODELS. THE PROJECT INTEGRATES ANALYSIS OF LARGE-SCALE MOLECULAR DATA FROM MORE THAN 2,000 HUMAN BRAINS AT ALL STAGES OF THE DISEASE WITH NETWORK MODELING APPROACHES AND EXPERIMENTAL VALIDATION. THIS PROJECT HAS CREATED A KNOWLEDGE PORTAL THAT ENABLES RAPID, BROAD SHARING OF DATA AND ANALYTICAL TOOLS, AND PERIODICALLY RELEASES PUBLIC WAVES OF LARGE-SCALE MOLECULAR DATA FROM HUMAN BRAIN SAMPLES. THE ULTIMATE GOAL IS TO SHORTEN THE TIME BETWEEN DISCOVERY OF POTENTIAL DRUG TARGETS TO DEVELOPMENT OF NEW DRUGS FOR ALZHEIMER'S TREATMENT AND PREVENTION.IDENTIFYING BIOMARKERS IN CHILDREN TO HELP ADVANCE AUTISM RESEARCH AN AVERAGE OF ONE IN EVERY 68 EIGHT-YEAR-OLD CHILDREN IN THE UNITED STATES IS DIAGNOSED WITH AUTISM SPECTRUM DISORDER (ASD), TYPICALLY BASED ON BEHAVIORAL OBSERVATIONS BY PARENTS AND CAREGIVERS-BUT THESE BEHAVIORS CAN RANGE WIDELY. DEVELOPING EFFECTIVE INTERVENTIONS AND TREATMENTS THROUGH CLINICAL TRIALS DEPENDS ON DEVELOPING MORE SENSITIVE AND OBJECTIVE STANDARDS FOR DIAGNOSING ASD IN CHILDREN AND EVALUATING CHANGE OVER TIME. IN 2015, THE FNIH PARTNERED WITH THE NATIONAL INSTITUTE OF MENTAL HEALTH, SIMONS FOUNDATION AUTISM RESEARCH INITIATIVE (SFARI), FDA, JANSSEN RESEARCH & DEVELOPMENT, LLC AND EUROPEAN AUTISM INTERVENTIONS - A MULTICENTRE STUDY FOR DEVELOPING NEW MEDICATIONS (EU-AIMS) TO SUPPORT A STUDY OF PRESCHOOL AND SCHOOL-AGED CHILDREN WITH ASD TO VALIDATE BIOMARKERS THAT COULD HELP ASSESS SOCIAL FUNCTION, TRACK CHANGES IN BEHAVIOR AND NEUROLOGIC FUNCTION, AND POTENTIALLY EVALUATE THE EFFECTIVENESS OF PHARMACOLOGIC TREATMENTS. THE FNIH IS MANAGING A $2 MILLION CONTRIBUTION FROM SFARI TO FUND THE YALE UNIVERSITY STUDY LED BY JAMES MCPARTLAND, PH.D., PRINCIPAL INVESTIGATOR, WHICH IS COLLECTING DATA FROM CHILDREN AT FIVE SITES NATIONWIDE USING ASSESSMENTS OF SOCIAL IMPAIRMENT, SUCH AS CLINICIAN, CAREGIVER AND LAB-BASED TOOLS; NEUROPHYSIOLOGICAL MEASURES, SUCH AS EYE TRACKING AND STUDIES OF BRAIN ACTIVITY (EEG, OR ELECTROENCEPHALOGRAM); AND BLOOD SAMPLES FROM PARTICIPANTS AND THEIR PARENTS FOR GENETIC ANALYSIS. THIS $28 MILLION LARGE-SCALE U.S. PARTNERSHIP TO IDENTIFY BIOMARKERS ASSOCIATED WITH ASD IS PART OF THE FNIH BIOMARKERS CONSORTIUM.BUILDING RESEARCH INFRASTRUCTURE IN AFRICATO DEVELOP THE NEW VACCINES AND TREATMENTS THAT IMPROVE PUBLIC HEALTH, RESEARCHERS REQUIRE ACCESS TO HIGH-PERFORMANCE COMPUTING RESOURCES FOR COLLECTING AND ANALYZING COMPLEX BIOLOGICAL DATA. MANY LOW-INCOME COUNTRIES LACK THE INFRASTRUCTURE NEEDED FOR BIOINFORMATICS RESEARCH, EVEN AS THEY FACE SOME OF THE WORLD'S MOST CHALLENGING AND OFTEN-NEGLECTED DISEASES. LAST YEAR, THE FNIH PLAYED A PIVOTAL ROLE IN HELPING THE NATIONAL INSTITUTE OF ALLERGY AND INFECTIOUS DISEASES (NIAID) LAUNCH THE FIRST AFRICAN CENTER OF EXCELLENCE IN BIOINFORMATICS (ACE) IN MALI, WEST AFRICA. BUILDING ON NIAID'S ONGOING SUPPORT FOR RESEARCHERS IN MALI, THE FNIH INVITED CORPORATE PARTNERS SUCH AS THE BIOTEAM INC., INTEL CORPORATION HEALTH AND LIFE SCIENCES GROUP, THE EMC CORPORATION AND HEWLETT PACKARD ENTERPRISE TO DONATE EQUIPMENT FOR COMPUTING AND DATA ANALYSIS, HIGH-SPEED CONNECTIVITY, AND RESEARCH AND CLASSROOM SPACES. MALI ACE OPENED IN APRIL 2015 AT THE UNIVERSITY OF SCIENCES, TECHNIQUES AND TECHNOLOGY OF BAMAKO (USTTB). LOCAL RESEARCHERS ARE NOW ABLE TO CONDUCT ADVANCED BIOINFORMATICS RESEARCH WHILE RECEIVING LONG-DISTANCE TRAINING AND MENTORSHIP BY NIAID RESEARCHERS. MALI ACE WILL SERVE AS A MODEL FOR FUTURE BIOINFORMATICS RESEARCH CENTERS IN OTHER REGIONS OF AFRICA.CONTINUING IN THE SEARCH FOR AN HIV VACCINE SINCE THE MID-1990S, THE SUCCESSFUL DEVELOPMENT OF MEDICATIONS FOR PEOPLE WITH HUMAN IMMUNODEFICIENCY VIRUS, OR HIV, HAS DEFLECTED SOME ATTENTION FROM THE SEARCH FOR A PREVENTIVE VACCINE. BUT NO MEDICINE HAS CURED HIV, AND ONLY ABOUT HALF OF THE MORE THAN 33 MILLION HIV-POSITIVE PEOPLE WORLDWIDE CAN ACCESS TREATMENT. A SUCCESSFUL VACCINE IS STILL CONSIDERED FUNDAMENTAL FOR CONQUERING HIV/AIDS. FOR NEARLY 10 YEARS, THE FNIH HAS SERVED AS COORDINATOR FOR THE COMPREHENSIVE T CEL	Desc

Desc	SEE SCHEDULE O, PROGRAM TWO, FELLOWSHIPS AND TRAINING PROGRAMSPROGRAM TWO - FELLOWSHIPS AND TRAINING PROGRAMS - RECOGNIZING GROUNDBREAKING WORK BY EARLY-CAREER SCIENTISTS DUE TO STEADY DECLINES IN FINANCIAL SUPPORT FOR BASIC SCIENCE RESEARCH, TODAY'S YOUNG SCIENTISTS FACE A CHALLENGING ENVIRONMENT IN WHICH TENURE-TRACK UNIVERSITY POSITIONS ARE SCARCE AND ABOUT 85 PERCENT OF RESEARCH GRANT PROPOSALS ARE UNFUNDED. IT IS NOT UNUSUAL FOR BIOMEDICAL RESEARCHERS TO REACH THEIR LATE 30S OR 40S BEFORE RECEIVING A MAJOR RESEARCH GRANT-AND THIS AFFECTS THEIR ABILITY TO MAKE SIGNIFICANT, CAREER-CHANGING DISCOVERIES. THREE YEARS AGO, THE FNIH ESTABLISHED THE LURIE PRIZE IN BIOMEDICAL SCIENCES, NAMED FOR PHILANTHROPIST AND BOARD MEMBER ANN LURIE, TO HELP PROPEL THE WORK OF ONE TRULY STELLAR, EARLY-CAREER RESEARCHER EACH YEAR. THE PRESTIGIOUS PRIZE, WHICH INCLUDES A MEDAL AND SIGNIFICANT RESEARCH HONORARIUM, IS AWARDED AT A WASHINGTON, DC CEREMONY EVERY SPRING. THE 2015 LURIE PRIZE WINNER WAS HOWARD HUGHES MEDICAL INSTITUTE INVESTIGATOR AND STANFORD UNIVERSITY NEUROSCIENTIST AND PSYCHIATRIST KARL DEISSEROTH, M.D., PH.D., WHO ALONG WITH HIS TEAM HAS PIONEERED TWO GAME-CHANGING TECHNIQUES: OPTOGENETICS, WHICH USES LIGHT TO MAP THE NEURAL CIRCUITS IN OUR BRAINS, AND A TECHNOLOGY CALLED CLARITY THAT ALLOWS SCIENTISTS TO MAKE ORGANS TRANSPARENT AND THEREFORE EASIER TO STUDY UNDER A MICROSCOPE. IN HIS HANDS, BOTH PROMISE TO REVOLUTIONIZE OUR APPROACH TO NEUROLOGICAL DISEASES SUCH AS MAJOR DEPRESSION, ALZHEIMER'S AND PARKINSON'S.PREVENTING COGNITIVE DECLINE AGE-RELATED DECLINE IN COGNITIVE FUNCTION IS REAL AND VARIES WIDELY AMONG INDIVIDUALS, INFLUENCING QUALITY OF LIFE, CHARACTER OF PERSONAL RELATIONSHIPS AND CAPACITY FOR MAKING INFORMED DECISIONS ABOUT HEALTH CARE, RETIREMENT AND OTHER ISSUES FACED DAILY BY MILLIONS OF OLDER ADULTS. IN 2007, THE MCKNIGHT BRAIN RESEARCH FOUNDATION (MBRF) PARTNERED WITH THE FNIH AND THE NATIONAL INSTITUTE ON AGING (NIA) TO FUND THE FIRST COGNITIVE AGING SUMMIT, WHERE DOZENS OF RESEARCHERS SHARED IDEAS ABOUT HOW BEST TO UNDERSTAND AND REMEDIATE AGE-RELATED COGNITIVE DECLINE. THE SUMMIT LED TO THE RESEARCH PARTNERSHIP IN COGNITIVE AGING IN 2008, A PUBLIC-PRIVATE EFFORT BETWEEN THE NIA AND THE MBRF. BEGINNING IN 2009, THE PARTNERSHIP FUNDED TWO RESEARCH INITIATIVES, 17 GRANTS TOTALING $28 MILLION OVER FIVE YEARS. THE PARTNERSHIP SUPPORTED A SECOND SUMMIT IN 2010, WITH RECOMMENDATIONS LEADING TO A THIRD JOINT INITIATIVE FOCUSED ON INTERVENTIONS. IN 2014, THE PARTNERSHIP, ALONG WITH THE NATIONAL CENTER FOR COMPLEMENTARY & INTEGRATIVE HEALTH AND THE NIH OFFICE OF BEHAVIORAL AND SOCIAL SCIENCES RESEARCH, FUNDED THE $15 MILLION MEDEX (MINDFULNESS, HEALTH EDUCATION, & EXERCISE) TRIAL. NOW UNDERWAY, THE TRIAL IS COMPARING THE EFFECTIVENESS OF MINDFULNESS-BASED STRESS REDUCTION, BRAIN HEALTH EDUCATION AND AEROBIC EXERCISE AS STRATEGIES FOR IMPROVING COGNITIVE FUNCTION.EDMOND J.
