The NIH Office of Science Education (OSE) coordinates science education activities at the NIH and develops and sponsors science education projects in house. These programs serve elementary, secondary, and college students and teachers and the public. Activities * Develop curriculum supplements and other educational materials related to medicine and research through collaborations with scientific experts at NIH * Maintain a website as a central source of information about NIH science education resources * Establish national model programs in public science education, such as the NIH Mini-Med School and Science in the Cinema * Promote science education reform as outlined in the National Science Education Standards and related guidelines The OSE was established in 1991 within the Office of Science Policy of the Office of the Director of the National Institutes of Health. The NIH is the world''s foremost biomedical research center and the U.S. federal government''s focal point for such research. It is one of the components of the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS). The Office of Science Education (OSE) plans, develops, and coordinates a comprehensive science education program to strengthen and enhance efforts of the NIH to attract young people to biomedical and behavioral science careers and to improve science literacy in both adults and children. The function of the Office is as follows: (1) develops, supports, and directs new program initiatives at all levels with special emphasis on targeting students in grades kindergarten to 16, their educators and parents, and the general public; (2) advises NIH leadership on science education issues; (3) examines and evaluates research and emerging trends in science education and literacy for policy making; (4) works closely with the NIH extramural, intramural, women''s health, laboratory animal research, and minority program offices on science education special issues and programs to ensure coordination of NIH efforts; (5) works with NIH institutes, centers, and divisions to enhance communication of science education activities; and (6) works cooperatively with other public- and private-sector organizations to develop and coordinate activities.

Database characterizing and comparing pluripotent human stem cells. The growth and culture conditions of all 21 human embryonic stem cell lines approved under the August 2001 Presidential Executive Order have been analyzed. Available to the scientific community are the results of our rigorous characterization of these cell lines at a more advanced level.

National resource for investigators utilizing human post-mortem brain tissue and related biospecimens for their research to understand conditions of the nervous system. Federated network of brain and tissue repositories in the United States that collects, evaluates, stores, and makes available to researchers, brain and other tissues in a way that is consistent with the highest ethical and research standards. The NeuroBioBank ensures protection of the privacy and wishes of donors. Provides information to the public about the need for tissue donation and how to register as a donor.

A listing of human embryonic cell lines that are eligible for use in NIH funded research. Those lines that carry disease-specific mutations are noted as such under the line name. Total Eligible Lines = 200. The purpose of the Registry is to provide investigators with: # a unique NIH Code for each cell line that must be used when applying for NIH funding and # contact information to facilitate investigators' acquisition of stem cells. Before submitting a new grant application and supporting materials for consideration of a human embryonic stem cell line, scientists may wish to see what lines are already under consideration: * Human embryonic stem cell lines submitted to NIH that are being reviewed to determine if they may be used in NIH-supported research, http://grants.nih.gov/stem_cells/registry/pending.htm President George W. Bush required that the name of the registry be changed in his Executive Order #13435, issued on June 20, 2007. As a result of this Executive Order, the former National Institutes of Health Human Embryonic Stem Cell Registry will now be called the National Institutes of Health Human Pluripotent Stem Cell Registry. The registry will now include both human embryonic stem cells that were derived consistent with the President's policy of August 9, 2001 and human pluripotent stem cells derived from non-embryonic sources.
