with ‘‘BRAIN RFI’’ in the subject line.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
The BRAIN Initiative aims to develop
new tools and technologies to
understand and manipulate networks of
cells in the brain. BRAIN 2025: A
Scientific Vision serves as the strategic
plan for the BRAIN Initiative at NIH and
outlines an overarching vision, seven
high level scientific priorities, and many
specific goals. Designed to be achieved
over at least a decade, the first five years
of BRAIN 2025 emphasizes
development of tools and technology,
and the next five years shifts emphasis
to using these tools to make
fundamental discoveries about how
brain circuits work and what goes
wrong in disease.
The BRAIN Initiative is well
underway (see https://
www.braininitiative.nih.gov), and we are
now approaching the midpoint. At this
time, NIH is seeking feedback on the
BRAIN Initiative’s progress and on
opportunities moving forward given the
current state of the science. NIH has
established a new BRAIN Initiative
Advisory Committee of the NIH Director
(ACD) Working Group that will provide
scientific guidance to the ACD on how
best to continue to accelerate the
ambitious vision for the BRAIN
Initiative.
The ACD–WG will use the responses
to this RFI, along with information
gathered through a series of public
workshops, to help inform their
discussions of the BRAIN Initiative’s
progress and potential updates to the
plan moving forward.
Information Requested
Anyone wishing to submit a response
is asked to include:
• Ideas for new tools and
technologies that have the potential to
transform brain circuit research.
• Suggestions for fundamental
questions about brain circuit function in
