Strategic Plan
ORIP Strategic Plan 2021–2025
This strategic plan was launched in February 2021 and is being implemented through September 2025. ORIP is currently updating the strategic plan to ensure it is aligned with the current Administration’s priorities and complies with this Administration’s Executive Orders. The updated version will be posted once it is available.
ORIP is part of the Division of Program Coordination, Planning, and Strategic Initiatives (DPCPSI) within the NIH Office of the Director (OD). DPCPSI identifies scientific research gaps and emerging opportunities, as well as arising public health challenges. The NIH-wide nature of ORIP activities demands close collaboration among ORIP divisions (Division of Comparative Medicine and Division of Construction and Instruments), DPCPSI, and the entire NIH to optimize infrastructure support of studies for a wide range of diseases across the basic, translational, and clinical research continuum. The ORIP 2021–2025 Strategic Plan includes four high-priority thematic areas.
