Elias Zerhouni: Settling In
1. What research made the strongest impression on you at this year’s Research Festival? Do you have any suggestions on how to improve attendance at next year’s Research Festival symposia and workshops?
2. What are your aspirations with regard to the new Clinical Research Information System, described in the commentary from the Clinical Center director (see page 2)?
3. Should NIH expand the number of ACGME-accredited programs (see pages 8—10)? In what areas?
4. How should NIH break the news–to the public and the scientific community– when a clinical trial must be or has been halted because the study regimen has been found wanting?
