    extramural program or policy changes, statistics on extramural programs or

    and any other items of interest to the biomedical research community or
    general public. The messages will change every other Monday.

    recorded message. At the end of the message, you will then have the
    opportunity to make any comments or suggestions for future items. We welcome
    your comments or suggestions, since this is the main way we can determine if
    this information line is meeting the needs of our constituents.
