The National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS) is currently developing a Strategic Plan for the next five years. This new plan will help NINDS to fulfill its mission to seek fundamental knowledge about the brain and nervous system and to use that knowledge to reduce the burden of neurological disease. To create the strategic plan, taskforces of NINDS scientific and administrative staff from across the Institute assessed needs, opportunities, practices, and policies in the areas of neuroscience and neurology research, research training and workforce diversity, communication, and workforce culture. At several points during the planning process, NINDS sought input from our external stakeholder communities to inform our strategic goals and objectives: At the start of the effort, a Request for Information (RFI) gathered public input regarding our four broad strategic goals. A summary of RFI responses is available at https://bit.ly/NINDS-SP-RFISummaryStrategicGoals. NINDS held multiple discussions with its National Advisory Neurological Disorders and Stroke Council, and the NINDS Deputy Director, Dr. Nina Schor, presented the broad goals of the plan at various professional society meetings, as well as at the annual NINDS Nonprofit Forum to gather additional input. NINDS held a series of six discussion panels of external stakeholders offering their individual insights and opinions on basic research, therapy development, training, diversity, and career development, and communication strategies. Meeting summaries for these discussion panels are available at https://www.ninds.nih.gov/About-NINDS/Strategic-Plans-Evaluations/Strat…. NINDS is now seeking input from the biomedical community and the public on our draft strategic plan.
