Background
This Request for Information (RFI) invites brief perspectives on the state of mental illness research and the National Institute of Mental Health's role in the development of this research. In preparation for the next NIMH Director, NIMH is seeking external input to develop briefing materials that will represent the full diversity of perspectives on mental illness research.
Information Requested
NIMH invites comments on the state of mental illness research and NIMH's role in the future development of this research.
This RFI seeks input from stakeholders from the scientific research community and the general public. The NIMH seeks comments on any or all of, but not limited to, the following topics:
- basic neuroscience research

- intervention research
- services research
- Research Domain Criteria initiative (RDoC)
- global mental health
- translational biomarkers

Respondents should identify the category to which they are responding. Comments may focus on current efforts, research gaps, or suggested investments in the selected category and/or on the ways that NIMH may have a greater impact on this area.
NIMH requests that respondents take the current NIMH Strategic Plan for Research (http://www.nimh.nih.gov/about/strategic-planning-reports/index.shtml) into consideration when providing comments on research directions and opportunities. The NIMH launched this plan in 2015 as a commitment to accelerate the pace of scientific progress by generating research over the subsequent 5 years.
Comments should be concise and may not exceed 500 words per category in order to allow the inclusion of a variety of perspectives. Multiple submissions on different topic areas from the same individual are acceptable.
NIMH welcomes feedback from investigators, investigator-sponsors, clinicians, advocates, and any other stakeholders who participate in or are otherwise invested in mental illness research.
