Feedback Wanted - Developing the NIH-Wide Strategic Plan for Fiscal Years 2027-2031

March 4, 2026

NIH seeks community feedback on the next Agency-Wide Strategic Plan. This plan will guide our work over the next five years to fulfill our mission for the American people. Input from the research community, stakeholders, and the public is essential to ensure transparency in what we do and advance the principles of gold standard science that we all apply to our daily work. 

NIH will hold two webinars to gather input from the research community, stakeholders, and the public on the framework that will inform development of the plan: 

NIH leadership will:

  • Introduce the process for developing the next NIH-Wide Strategic Plan
  • Outline the high-level framework
  • Answer attendees’ questions 

Please join us and help shape the future of biomedical research at NIH. We look forward to your input.
