The Partnership for Accelerating Cancer Therapies (PACT) is a five-year public-private research collaboration totaling $215 million launched by the National Institutes of Health, the FNIH (Foundation for the NIH) and 11 leading pharmaceutical companies as part of the Cancer Moonshot. PACT is initially focused on efforts to identify, develop and validate robust biomarkers — standardized biological markers of disease and treatment response — to advance new immunotherapy treatments that harness the immune system to attack cancer. The partnership is managed by the FNIH, with the Food and Drug Administration serving in an advisory role.

The White House Conference on Hunger, Nutrition, and Health — held in September 2022 — renewed national attention and issued a call to action to end hunger and reduce the prevalence of chronic disease in the United States by 2030. Food is Medicine approaches that focus on integrating consistent access to diet- and nutrition- related resources are a critical component to achieve this goal. The approaches are increasingly present across many communities and systems. There’s also increasing federal investment and action to support Food is Medicine approaches in a variety of settings. Building on this collective energy, the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) developed a Food is Medicine initiative in response to a congressionally funded initiative. This link is external to health.gov. in fiscal year 2023. This congressional action directed the Secretary of HHS, in consultation with other federal agencies, to develop and implement a federal strategy to reduce nutrition-related chronic diseases and food insecurity to improve health and racial equity in the United States. This includes diet-related research and programmatic efforts that will increase access to Food is Medicine initiatives. Access to nutritious food is critical to health and resilience. Food is Medicine is a concept that reaffirms this connection, recognizing that access to high-quality nourishment is essential for well-being. By supporting the production of and facilitating access to nutritious food across a health continuum and range of settings, approaches to Food is Medicine support immediate and long-term resources for people, communities, and systems. This HHS Office of Disease Prevention and Health Promotion (ODPHP)-led working group is focused on working collaboratively with federal partners and external organizations and communities to develop resources that can be used to advance Food is Medicine approaches across the country.

The National Food and Nutrient Analysis Program (NFNAP), now known as FoodData Central (FDC) Meeting, is a dynamic research program that aims to achieve long-sought improvements in the nutrient values for foods in the National Nutrient Databank System (NDBS) as well as support initiatives in development of dietary supplement databases. NFNAP is a collaboration between the US Department of Agriculture (USDA) and multiple groups including the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) and other federal agencies. Analytical data generated through the NFNAP are compiled and released in annual updates of the USDA National Nutrient Database for Standard Reference (SR). They are also used to calculate estimates for related foods not analyzed, to assess nutrient variability, and to evaluate methods for estimating the nutrient content of multi-ingredient foods.

The National Library of Medicine (NLM) manages and maintains Bookshelf, a free, web-based resource of full-text documents that provide evidence-based information related to health-care decision making. Content in Bookshelf is made available through NLM Literature Archive agreements and clauses in Interagency Public Access agreements to make the full text of various federal government grey literature, such as systematic reviews, clinical guidelines, assessments, and technical reports, publicly available. Bookshelf also manages the Health Services/Technology Assessment Texts (HSTAT) collection of health services research documents. Bookshelf is the point of contact for federal agencies in making their new and updated documents publicly accessible.
