“In order to advance its mission and fulfill requirements of the 21st Century Cures Act, NIH will update its Strategic Plan every 5 years. The most recent iteration, the NIH-Wide Strategic Plan for Fiscal Years 2021–2025, is an update on the previous plan for fiscal years 2016–2020.”
“The Strategic Plan outlines NIH’s vision for biomedical research direction, capacity, and stewardship, by articulating the highest priorities of NIH over the next 5 years. In addition, it provides illustrative examples of accomplishments under the last plan and new initiatives under this one. The Strategic Plan was developed through collaboration between leadership and staff across NIH and key stakeholders, including the research community, professional societies, advocacy groups, and the public.”
