FY 2017 Senate Appropriations Testimony

May 19, 2016

FY2017 Senate Appropriations Committee Public Testimony Submitted By The Endocrine Society For The Subcommittee On Labor, Health And Human Services, Education, And Related Agencies Addressing The National Institutes Of Health

"The Endocrine Society remains deeply concerned about the future of biomedical research in the United States without sustained support from the federal government. Flat funding levels would threaten the nation’s scientific enterprise. The Society strongly supports increased federal funding for biomedical research in order to provide the additional resources needed to enable American scientists to address scientific opportunities and maintain the country’s status as the preeminent research engine in the world. The Endocrine Society therefore asks that the NIH receive at least $35 billion in FY 2017."
