The FDA-NIH Joint Agency on Nutrition (JAN) Working Group was formed in 2016 by the FDA-NIH Joint Leadership Council to facilitate high-quality nutrition research to improve public health outcomes across the lifespan in order to: 1) reduce the risk factors for and incidence of nutrition-related chronic disease; and 2) to inform nutrition-related regulatory decision-making and consumer outreach/education related to nutrition, including addressing gaps and opportunities in the areas of dietary supplements and nutrition research related to pregnant women and children. The JAN Working Group reports to the NIH-FDA Joint Leadership Council and is co-chaired by the Director of the NIDDK Office of Nutrition Research and the Director of the FDA‘s Center for Food Safety and Applied Nutrition). Members of the NIH Nutrition Research Task Force also participate in this Working Group. |

| Federal Administration for Strategic Preparedness and Response - Botulism Work Group |
Committee, Work group, Advisory group, or Task Force |
ASPR |
NIAID |
The objective of this Botulism Working Group is to develop the annual Medical Countermeasures Preparedness Review (MCMPR) – i.e., the annual SNS review, for the PHEMCE Division. The group drafts a modeling report produced by our modeling partners based on the work group’s chosen scenarios. This details casualty counts based on each scenario and impacts to the casualty count based on existing countermeasures held in the SNS (HBAT and ventilators). This will help inform the national quantitative requirement needs for the Botulism Requirement. |

The Federal Data Consortium on Pregnancy and Birth to 24 Months (P/B-24, Data Consortium) is a federal forum for sharing information and finding solutions to resolve crucial needs for data on pregnancy and early childhood populations to inform public health initiatives. The collaboration is open to any U.S. federal employee and currently spans 185 federal staff and leaders from 30 agencies in five Departments (HHS, USDA, USAID, EPA, and DoD). The Data Consortium is co-led by representatives of ODPHP, CDC, NIH, and FDA of HHS and ARS and FNS of USDA. The Data Consortium arose out of work by ODPHP/ OASH in 2016 to coordinate requests for “special studies” from CDC’s National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) to fill crucial needs for data on P/B24 populations to support future Dietary Guidelines for Americans (DGA) in providing science-based food-based recommendations to help promote health and prevent chronic disease. However, 4 APPENDIX — National Institutes of Health: 2020–2030 Strategic Plan for NIH Nutrition Research as the Data Consortium has demonstrated, the essentiality for these data goes beyond the needs of the DGA; over a dozen Federal agencies have funded projects coordinated by the Data Consortium and focused on filling critical gaps in scientific knowledge to support evidence-based programs, policies, and educational initiatives across the government and non-government sectors. The work of the Federal Data Consortium on P/B24, supported by NIH and other Agencies, has resulted in several current initiatives including, but not limited to: • New B-24 questionnaire content in the NHANES Diet and Behavior Questionnaire • A pilot study to determine the feasibility of collecting venous blood samples from children under 1 year of age in NHANES, currently only collected from ages 1 year and older. |
