Highlighted Topics Resource Round-Up

Last month, we launched the new NIH Highlighted Topics resource. This centralized and simplified tool aims to inform the research community about particular areas of science of interest to NIH. It facilitates innovation and discovery through a strong focus on driving more investigator-initiated research.

Several new topics have been posted since then. New topics will continue to be added going forward. We encourage the research community to check back often and reach out to the designated scientific contacts with any questions.

Below are highlights of additional resources and modifications made since rolling out the resource:

• Frequently Asked Questions.
• Topic table filters to select participating NIH Institutes, Centers, or Offices (ICOs).
• Subscription feature so you can get weekly emails on topics that match your chosen criteria.
  • You can create multiple subscriptions for different ICOs or keywords specific to your research area.
  • If you prefer, you can get every new topic. Leave the keyword field blank and select all the ICOs.

We welcome any additional suggestions you may have for additional resources or modifications to the system to ensure it remains a helpful resource when seeking funding from NIH.
