Forecast text
This request is needed to continue specialized support services that keep the National Institute of Biomedical Imaging and Bioengineering Intramural Research Program operating effectively and available to researchers across the National Institutes of Health. The required services include contract and program management; operation of shared research resources; engineering, fabrication, and rapid prototyping support; equipment maintenance; user training; safety and compliance support; inventory and scheduling support; scientific administration and research operations support; and strategic advisory services for intramural leadership. These services are essential to sustain shared facilities and technical capabilities used for device development, microfabrication, microfluidics, imaging phantom resources, scientific coordination, and operational planning. If this request is not approved, the institute will face disruption in shared resource operations, reduced access to specialized engineering and fabrication services, delays in research activities, loss of operational continuity, and diminished ability to support investigators across the National Institutes of Health, which would negatively affect ongoing biomedical research and the institute's ability to meet current and future mission needs.
