SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: As specified in Public Law 111-148
(``Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act'') the Committee will:
(A) develop a summary of advances in pain care research supported
or conducted by the Federal agencies relevant to the diagnosis,
prevention, and treatment of pain and diseases and disorders associated
with pain;
(B) identify critical gaps in basic and clinical research on the
symptoms and causes of pain;
(C) make recommendations to ensure that the activities of the
National Institutes of Health and other Federal agencies are free of
unnecessary duplication of effort;
(D) make recommendations on how best to disseminate information on
pain care; and (e) make recommendations on how to expand partnerships
between public entities and private entities to expand collaborative,
cross-cutting research.
Membership on the committee will include six (6) non-Federal
members from among scientists, physicians, and other health
professionals and six (6) non-Federal members of the general public who
are representatives of leading research, advocacy, and service
organizations for individuals with pain-related conditions. Members
will serve overlapping three year terms. It is anticipated that the
committee will meet at least once a year.
The Department strives to ensure that the membership of HHS Federal
advisory committees is fairly balanced in terms of points of view
represented and the committee's function. Every effort is made to
ensure that the views of diverse ethnic and racial groups and people
with disabilities are represented on HHS Federal advisory committees,
and the Department therefore, encourages nominations of qualified
candidates from these groups. The Department also encourages geographic
diversity in the composition of the Committee. Appointment to this
Committee shall be made without discrimination on the basis of age,
race, ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation, disability, and cultural,
religious, or socioeconomic status.
The Department is soliciting nominations for non-federal members
from among scientists, physicians, and other health professionals and
for non-federal members of the public who represent a leading research,
advocacy, or service organization for people with pain-related
conditions. These candidates will be considered to fill positions
opened through completion of current member terms. Nominations are due
by 5:00 p.m. ET on December 17, 2024, using the IPRCC nomination
