SEARCH for Diabetes in Youth (SEARCH) Research Initiative CDC NIDDK SEARCH is a multi-center study designed to characterize the epidemiology of both type 1 diabetes and type 2 diabetes in the population aged 20 years, along with the associated complications, quality of diabetes care, and quality of life of children and youth with diabetes. SEARCH aims also include 1) the development and validation of simple and low-cost case definitions and classifications of diabetes types in youth, 2) the establishment of a repository of biological specimens, and 3) systems to maintain contact with study participants to facilitate studies of childhood diabetes. SEARCH is funded by NIDDK and CDC.
Secretary's Advisory Committee on Infant Mortality Committee, Work group, Advisory group, or Task Force CDC, HRSA NICHD The Secretary's Advisory Committee on Infant Mortality (SACIM) was formed in 1991 to advise the Secretary on Department of Health and Human Services programs that are directed at reducing infant mortality and improving the health status of pregnant women and infants.
Senior Medical Advisor to Assistant Secretary for Preparedness and Response (ASPR) Committee, Work group, Advisory group, or Task Force OS, IOS NCI A NCI staff member serves as Senior Medical Advisor to ASPR. This is as a global leader and subject matter expert in nuclear and radiological incidents and disasters as well as disaster preparedness in general. As such, NCI helps to develop plans for emergency and disaster responses and plays a role in responses operations as needed. A good number of the Operations plans and models that apply to all hazards have been developed from NCI science and knowledge.

Sequencing Quality Control Phase 2 (SEQC2) Resource Development FDA NLM, CIT, NCI, NHLBI, NIEHS The Sequencing Quality Control (SEQC) consortium is an FDA-led community-wide effort. SEQC2 is a project within the consortium. SEQC2 goals: (1) to develop quality metrics for reproducible NGS results from both whole genome sequencing (WGS) and targeted gene sequencing (TGS), (2) to benchmark bioinformatics methods for WGS and TGS towards the development of standard data analysis protocols, and (3) to assess the joint effects of key parameters affecting NGS results and interpretation for clinical application. NLM/NCBI provides an NCBI data portal for and contributes data analysis to this effort.
Serum organochlorine/PCB concentrations and risk of prostate cancer in men from Ghana Research Initiative CDC NCI National Cancer Institute (NCI) and Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) are collaborating to measure serum levels of persistent organic pollutants for a case-control study of prostate cancer in the Ghana Prostate Study.
Serum PFAS concentrations and risk of renal cell carcinoma in the Multiethnic Cohort Research Initiative CDC NCI National Cancer Institute (NCI) and Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) are collaborating to measure serum levels of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) for a nested case-control study of renal cell carcinoma (RCC) in the Multiethnic Cohort.
Severe Maternal Morbidity and Mortality (SMM&M) EHR Data Infrastructure Project Other ONC, CDC, ASPE NICHD, NLM The purpose of the SMM&M EHR Data Infrastructure Project is to develop a standardized approach to link electronic data on maternal and infant health for use in studying the effect of medical conditions and/or interventions on pregnant, postpartum or lactating women and their infants. The SMM&M EHR Data Infrastructure is a project of the Maternal Health Consortium, funded by the Assistant Secretary for Planning and Evaluation (ASPE).
