CALL FOR CATALYTIC REACTIONS  

In this issue, we are asking for your reactions in four areas: translational research, meeting travel, ATLAS small-animal PET studies, and giving credit within "Big Science" projects.

Send your responses on these topics or your comments on other intramural research concerns to us via e-mail:
<catalyst@nih.gov>; fax:402-4303; or mail: Building 2, Room 2W23.

New Building Views and Blues

NCI's New Director

1. In addition to a competitive awards program, how else can the intramural program encourage bench-to-bedside translational research?

 

2. What is your reaction to the elimination of the "Rule of Five" for meeting travel? How is the new system playing out in your institute?

 


3. How might the ATLAS small-animal PET scanner be useful to you in your studies?

 

4. With reference to the Alex Dent cartoon, do you have any suggestions on how to reduce the anxieties and best recognize the contributions of team members involved in "Big Science" projects?
