Planning process of the National Human Genome Research Institute

May 6, 2009

The planning process of the National Human Genome Research Institute (NHGRI) has entered its second phase, and we are again seeking your input.  Based upon your many on-line comments about the questions originally posed in four white papers in Phase 1, we have revised those questions.  What we seek now, in Phase 2, is your input regarding how best to answer the revised questions.  We invite you to comment, through June 30, 2009, at www.genome.gov/About/Planning.  To stimulate discussion, comments received will be posted anonymously for others to view and react to. 

Comments received through this white-paper process will be used to generate topics for further planning activities and workshops, which will be held in 2009 and 2010.
