As an umbrella organization for medical research networks, the TMF is responsible for improving the organization and infrastructure of medical research in networked structures. It supports researchers at the various locations in jointly identifying and solving problems of an organizational, legal and technical nature that are often not associated with the particular clinical problem or research focus. The network not only focuses on legal and ethical frameworks for networked medical research but also on the development of IT infrastructure, quality management activities for science-initiated trials and questions on the intermeshing of research and patient care. Under the umbrella organization of the TMF, expert opinions, studies, concepts, requirements specifications, services and tools are created. The products of the cooperation within the TMF are available to the research community. The aims of joint work in the TMF are: * Improvement of medical research in terms of quality, organization and cooperation * Solution of questions spanning networked medical research, e.g. on the collection, processing and exchange of research data * Clarification of the legal and ethical foundations for performing medical research * Issues of quality assurance and quality management * Development and extension of efficient IT infrastructures and their implementation in cross-institutional networked structures * Realization of cross-location solutions * Contributions to sustainable and efficient health research by means of the improved transfer of research findings to patient care

The latest findings on the science of drug abuse and addiction and commonly abused drugs, and lists resources for more information. They are committed to bringing timely, factual information on addiction and treatment to the press and public. NIDA''s Public Information and Liaison Branch (PILB) is part of NIDA''s Office of Science Policy and Communications. Linking scientists, the scientific community, and the media, PILB supports the rapid dissemination of research information to inform policy and to improve practice. NIDA''s goal is to ensure that science - not ideology or anecdote - forms the foundation of public information on drug abuse and addiction. NIDAs online MEDIA GUIDE provides answers on how to find what you need to know about drug abuse and addiction, including information on the basics (The Science of Drug Abuse and Addiction and Commonly Abused Drugs), resources (Where to Find Nationwide Trends and Statistics, NIDA Resources, and Other Government Web Sites for Health and Science Information), NIDAs history and background, a glossary and relevant contact information. NIDA is pleased to offer this guide to the important findings that are emerging as a result of research on addiction and its treatment. NIDA, part of the National Institutes of Health under the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, supports most of the world''s research on drug abuse and addiction, including basic and behavioral science research that addresses fundamental and essential questions relevant to drug abuse, ranging from its causes and consequences to its treatment and prevention. The purpose of this guide is to give journalists fast and user-friendly access to the latest scientific information but it is useful for anyone interested in how to access accurate information about drug abuse and addiction. In more than three decades as a researcher, I have seen the impact that science and health journalists have had in bringing scientific research to the public. It is through information that Americans gain hope and understanding. I have come to know many of you over the years and remain committed to releasing scientific information as quickly as possible for rapid dissemination to the public. Please keep this guide nearby as a useful tool and let us know how NIDA''s public liaison staff can help you reach your information and deadline needs. A PDF version is available for download.

The NIH Pain Consortium was established to enhance pain research and promote collaboration among researchers across the many NIH Institutes and Centers that have programs and activities addressing pain. To this end, the following goals have been identified for the Pain Consortium: * To develop a comprehensive and forward-thinking pain research agenda for the NIH - one that builds on what we have learned from our past efforts. * To identify key opportunities in pain research, particularly those that provide for multidisciplinary and trans-NIH participation. * To increase visibility for pain research - both within the NIH intramural and extramural communities, as well as outside the NIH. The latter audiences include our various pain advocacy and patient groups who have expressed their interests through scientific and legislative channels. * To pursue the pain research agenda through Public-Private partnerships, wherever applicable. This underscores a key dynamic that has been reinforced and encouraged through the Roadmap process.

The mission of the Thompson Center is to improve the lives of individuals and families affected by autism and neurodevelopmental disorders through world class programs that integrate research, clinical service delivery, education and public policy. The Thompson Center''s vision is to become a recognized national center of excellence that serves as a model of interdisciplinary practice, research and training in the field of autism and neurodevelopmental disorders. At the MU Thompson Center, education and training activities are a key part of our mission. Our goal is to teach others about the needs of persons with autism and other neurodevelopmental disorders and their families. In addition, we strive to help learners acquire skills needed to improve the outcomes of individuals with developmental differences. These skills include evidence-based assessment and intervention strategies, interdisciplinary approaches to service delivery, research methods, and policy development. The Thompson Center offers a range of health, educational and behavioral services in one location for individuals with autism and other developmental concerns. Professionals from different disciplines strive to deliver family-centered care that is comprehensive and coordinated. Autism recently has been recognized as a national public health concern, and federal research funding in this area has increased substantially. Faculty members engage in research that will lead to early identification, treatment and ultimately prevention of autism spectrum disorders (ASD). How findings may eventually translate into improved outcomes in clinical and community settings is a primary goal of our research.
