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 painrelated 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 one non-federal 

member from among scientists, 

physicians, and other health 

professionals and for three non-federal 

members of the general public who are 

representatives of leading research, 

advocacy, and service organizations 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 COB January 5, 

2015, and should be sent to Linda 

Porter, Ph.D., by USPS mail at NINDS/ 

NIH, 31 Center Drive, Room 8A27, 

Bethesda, MD 20892, or by email to
