NEW INITIATIVE TO REDUCE HEALTH DISPARITIES ANNOUNCED BY THE NATIONAL INSTITUTE OF NURSING RESEARCH
The National Institute of Nursing Research (NINR) is establishing a five-year program that creates eight new Centers to address health disparities research. Each Center involves a partnership between the schools of nursing of two or three universities -- those with established research programs that focus on health disparities, and those that are developing research programs in this area and have a significant number of minority nursing students.
FDA Talk Papers are prepared by the Press Office to guide FDA personnel in responding with consistency and accuracy to questions from the public on subjects of current interest. Talk Papers are subject to change as more information becomes available.
