The ODP fulfills this mission by providing leadership for the development, coordination, and implementation of prevention research in collaboration with NIH Institutes, Centers, and Offices and other partners. The first ODP strategic plan was released in February 2014 and charted new directions and, at the same time, built upon and expanded existing programs. The Office has made considerable progress on the priorities identified in the initial plan, and the ODP remains committed to playing an integral role in advancing trans-NIH prevention-related activities. Input received from this Request for Information will inform the development of the final FY 2019–2023 Strategic Plan, which will outline activities coordinated by the ODP to assess, facilitate, and stimulate research in disease prevention, and disseminate the results of this research to improve public health. The ODP is seeking input on the following strategic priorities: • Strategic Priority I: Systematically monitor NIH investments in prevention research and the progress and results of that research. • Strategic Priority II: Identify prevention research areas for investment or expanded effort by the NIH. • Strategic Priority III: Promote the use of the best available methods in prevention research and support the development of better methods. • Strategic Priority IV: Promote collaborative prevention research projects and facilitate coordination of such projects across the NIH and with other public and private entities. • Strategic Priority V: Advance the understanding of prevention research, increase the availability of prevention research resources and programs, and enhance ODP’s stakeholder engagement. The ODP is also seeking input on the following questions: • What new strategic priorities should the ODP consider adding to its plan? • What opportunities or challenges in disease prevention research and methods could the ODP help to address? • Who should the ODP partner with to address pressing needs in disease prevention research and methods? • What areas transcend disease prevention research that the ODP should consider as it develops its new plan? The definition of prevention research used by the ODP to guide its work and decision-making encompasses research designed to yield results directly applicable to identifying and assessing risk, developing interventions for VerDate Sep<11>2014 20:38 Dec 07, 2017 Jkt 244001 preventing or ameliorating high-risk behaviors and exposures, the occurrence of a disease, disorder, or injury, or the progression of detectable but asymptomatic disease. Prevention research also includes research studies to develop and evaluate disease prevention, health promotion recommendations, and public health programs. The ODP definition of prevention includes the following categories of research: • Identification of modifiable risk and protective factors for diseases/disorders/ injuries • Studies on assessment of risk, including genetic susceptibility • Development of methods for screening and identification of markers for those at risk for onset or progression of asymptomatic diseases/disorders, or those at risk for adverse, high-risk behaviors/injuries • Development and evaluation of interventions to promote health for groups of individuals without recognized signs or symptoms of the target condition • Translation of proven effective prevention interventions into practice • Effectiveness studies that examine factors related to the organization, management, financing, and adoption of prevention services and practices • Methodological and statistical procedures for assessing risk and measuring the effects of preventive interventions.
