Abstract |
The Office of Research and Development's (ORD's) multi-year plans (MYPs) presents ORD's proposed research (assuming constant funding) in a variety of areas over the next 5-8 years. The MYPs serve three principal purposes: to describe where our research programs are going, to present the significant outputs of the research, and to communicate our research plans within ORD and with others. Multi-year planning permits ORD to consider the strategic directions of the Agency and how research can evolve to best contribute to the Agency's mission of protecting human health and the environment. |
