The presidential declaration issued at the 2009 EU-US summit called for the creation of “a transatlantic task force on urgent antimicrobial resistance issues focused on appropriate therapeutic use of antimicrobial drugs in the medical and veterinary communities, prevention of both healthcare- and community-associated drug-resistant infections, and strategies for improving the pipeline of new antimicrobial drugs, which could be better addressed by intensified cooperation between us.” The objectives of the Trans-Atlantic Task Force on Antimicrobial Resistance (TATFAR) are to increase the mutual understanding of U.S. and EU activities and programs relevant to the antimicrobial resistance issues identified in the declaration to deepen the transatlantic dialogue, provide opportunities to learn from each other, and promote information exchange, coordination, and cooperation.

Formed in 2005, the Trans-NIH AI/AN Health Communications and Information Work Group provides a forum for health education and communications staff from National Institutes of Health (NIH) Institutes, Centers, and Offices to share strategies and effective communication approaches to develop and disseminate health information to American Indian and Alaska Native communities. In partnership with the Indian Health Service (IHS) and the Administration on Aging/Administration for Community Living (AoA/ACL), the Work Group conducts outreach to 1,600 IHS Community Health Representatives (CHRs) and 600 AoA/ACL Title VI grantees nationwide through quarterly e-newsletters featuring NIH health information. The e-newsletter, which replaced quarterly hard-copy mailings, features a wide range of health topics and is distributed to IHS CHRs and AoA/ACL grantees that provide services to Native elders. The purpose of the project is to increase awareness among CHRs and Title VI grantees about the availability of free or low-cost, science-based health information for patients and the general public.

Each scientific area of the strategic plan is developed by Coordinating Committees comprised of representatives from the NIH Institutes and Centers and scientific experts from other agencies, including CDC, HRSA, VA, USAID, DoD, and PEPFAR. These committees assist in developing the annual Trans-NIH Plan for HIV-Related Research to ensure that the AIDS research budget funds the highest priority HIV/AIDS research. The plan 1) frames the development of the NIH AIDS research budget; 2) determines the use of NIH AIDS-designated dollars; 3) tracks and monitors HIV/AIDS research expenditures; and 4) informs the public, the scientific community, Congress, and the AIDS-affected communities about the NIH HIV/AIDS research agenda. The Plan also shapes the NIH investment in HIV/AIDS research.
