Rock Stars of Science Event - Capitol Hill: Mary Woolley on the Impact of Research Investment

Research!America president, Mary Woolley, discusses the impact of health research, past successes, future challenges and the critical need to urge and engage our congress on the issue of the whole system of research for health.

Speeding up our process without sacrificing safety is clearly important for health and also for maintaining global leadership. We know from prior polls that Americans think we are not funding our nation's research agencies—NIH, CDC, AHRQ, FDA—at levels consistent with scientific opportunity.
