The 2023 NIH Behavioral and Social Sciences Research Festival was held on Tuesday, December 5, 2023, from 11:00 am to 4:00 pm ET. To access a recording and materials from this festival, please click here.

This annual meeting, organized by OBSSR and the NIH Behavioral and Social Sciences Research Coordinating Committee (BSSR-CC), informs the wider BSSR community, interested parties, and NIH Institutes and Centers (ICs) about the latest BSSR funded by NIH and its overall impact and importance across the entire field of biomedical research. Additional goals are to assist the ICs with the establishment of research priorities and the coordination of their programmatic efforts, thus minimizing redundancy and maximizing returns on NIH investments in BSSR.
