It was my pleasure to take part in a recent reception held on Capitol Hill to celebrate the lifesaving science that NIH supports. The well-attended evening reception was part of the Rally for Medical Research Capitol Hill Day, an annual event that is organized by the American Association for Cancer Research and supported by nearly 350 partnering organizations I spoke for several minutes about NIH’s role in furthering medical research and innovation, and how this wise national investment has led to more progress, more hope, and more lives saved. The reception was held in the Rayburn House Office Building on September 13. Credit: RallyforMedicalResearch.org

The early evening reception, hosted by the American Association for Cancer Research and supported by the nearly 350 partnering organizations, brought together hundreds of people to celebrate the value of medical research. The reception took place in the Dirksen Senate Office Building. Credit: Vera LaMarche
