SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The roundtable will also invite public
discussion of proposed organizational changes at NCATS, including
abolishing the Office of Drug Development Partnership Programs and the
Office of Translational Medicine, revising the functional statement of
the Office of Special Initiatives, and renaming the Chemical Genomics
Branch as the Translational Models Branch. These changes are intended
to consolidate program components within the NCATS Office of the
Director and align one of the Center's intramural research branches
with efforts to create non-animal models of disease. During the online
forum, members of the public will be able to review the proposed
changes and submit comments.
The NIH Reform Act of 2006 (42 U.S.C.281 (d)(4)) requires public
notice of proposed reorganization plans. This announcement and the
public forum serve as that notice.
Dated: September 2, 2026.

Director, National Center for Advancing Translational Sciences.
