The Republican and Democratic leaders of the Senate health committee today introduced legislation to help the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and the National Institutes of Health (NIH) “attract top talent during this exciting time in science.”
The FDA and NIH Workforce Authorities Modernization Act, introduced today by Chairman Lamar Alexander (R-Tenn.) and Ranking Member Patty Murray (D-Wash.) will also authorize the agencies to streamline coordination and cut red tape.
“There has never been a more remarkable time in biomedical innovation and research,” said Alexander.
