About the Activity & the Call for Experts

Learn more about the activity here

The National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine is seeking suggestions for experts to serve on the Forum on Drug Discovery, Development, and Translation. This Forum provides a neutral venue for stakeholders in government, academia, industry, foundations, and disease and patient advocacy to highlight critical issues, spur cross-sector collaboration, and inspire action towards improving the system of drug discovery, development, and translation. Forum-hosted public workshops, action collaboratives, and meetings focus on critical issues and practical approaches for advancing a clinical trials enterprise that is more efficient, effective, patient-centered, and integrated into the health delivery system. 

The National Academies value a wide range of perspectives to strengthen the quality of our work. We carefully consider alternative viewpoints when formulating advice, convening experts with differing experience and perspectives, providing oversight, and conducting all other activities, and strive to foster an environment where all can participate fully. We welcome your suggestions for a broad range of experts to work with us.
