 | | Events and Announcements | Revised Behavioral and Social Sciences Research Definition Thank you to everyone who participated in the BSSR definition crowdsourcing effort. The comments informed the final revision of the BSSR definition. Some suggestions, although not reflected in the BSSR definition, will be used to for future blog post topics to share in-depth discussion of the areas of science that are included in the BSSR at NIH. The revised BSSR definition is now posted on OBSSR's website.
