testified at the Senate Appropriations Subcommittee Hearing in 192
Dirksen Building. Witnesses were Francis Collins, me, Harold Varmus, Gary Gibbons,
Story Landis and Chris Austin. Chaired for last time (historic) by Sen. Tom Harken (D-
IO). I have been testifying before Sen. Harken for every one of the 25 years that he has
been in the Senate as a member, Chair, or Ranking Minority of this committee. Present
were Sen. Mikulski, Shelby (ranking minority of full committee), Moran (R-KS). It was
a love fest for NIH, but there is not going to be any new money for NIH (~0.7% increase
over 2014) because of budget constraints on discretionary spending.
