The NIH Behavioral and Social Sciences Research Coordinating Committee
(
BSSR CC; previously called the
NIH
Health and Behavior Coordinating Committee), with sponsorship by the Office of Behavioral and Social Sciences
Research
(
OBSSR),
convened the following series of guest lectures initially on Health and Behavior and later more
broadly on behavioral and social sciences research. These presentations by prominent behavioral and social
scientists provided the NIH community with overviews of current research on topics of scientific and social interest.
The lectures were approximately 50-minutes in length with the remainder of the session open for questions and
discussion.
