## What this funds

The Intramural Research Program performs robust scientific and clinical research that leads to a better understanding of biology and clinical pathology. Research focuses on foundational basic science coupled closely with innovative technology development and clinical research in partnership with the NIH Clinical Center and local hospitals. Research highlights include: Developing a new treatment for aplastic anemia: An NHLBI intramural research team pioneered the first stem cell transplant therapy to treat severe aplastic anemia,26 a rare but life- threatening hematologic disorder where there is insufficient production of blood cells. Stem cell transplantation has been a promising therapy, but finding matched sibling donors is not always possible. By using a patient's own cells, this therapy is much more available, and researchers demonstrated a 92 percent disease free and overall survival rate. The new therapy is potentially curative and has received FDA approval.27 Budget Policy: The FY 2027 President's Budget request for NHLBI intramural research is Research Management and Support (RMS) activities include administrative and technical functions that support and enhance the effectiveness of the Institute's research investments. This includes providing administrative, budgetary, logistical, and scientific support in the review and monitoring of research grants and clinical trials, training awards, and research development Budget Policy: The FY 2027 President's Budget request for RMS at NHLBI is $159.2 million, a decrease of $2.0 million or 1.3 percent compared with the FY2026 Enacted level.
