Message from the Director

The NIH SBIR and STTR programs, and an update on NIDCD's February advisory council meeting

Four professionals talking over coffee.

The NIH Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) and Small Business Technology Transfer Research (STTR) programs—managed together at NIH under an umbrella program known as SEED (Small business Education and Entrepreneurial Development)—empower small businesses and academic innovators to develop and bring to market new technologies that improve health. In this director's message, I describe these vital NIH programs and NIDCD's efforts to support research leading to commercialization of novel products and to advances in pharmaceuticals and devices in our mission areas.

Making Decisions About Complementary Health

Like all decisions about your health, decisions about whether to use complementary health approaches are important.

Like all decisions about your health, decisions about whether to use complementary health approaches are important. Here are some points to keep in mind: 

  • Be an informed consumer. Find out what scientific studies have been done on the approach that interests you.  
  • Before using any dietary supplement or herbal product, find out about any side effects it may have and whether it might interact with medicines you are taking. 
  • Talk with your health care providers before making a decision. They can help you determine whether a complementary approach is likely to be safe and helpful for you.

Forgoing One Food Treats Eosinophilic Esophagitis as Well as Excluding Six

Clear glass two-thirds full of white milk on blue background

Eliminating animal milk alone from the diet of adults with eosinophilic esophagitis, or EoE, is as effective at treating the disease as eliminating animal milk plus five other common foods, an NIH-funded clinical trial has found. For people with EoE whose disease remains active after they forgo animal milk, a more restrictive diet may help them achieve remission, according to the researchers. These findings were published in the journal The Lancet Gastroenterology & Hepatology.
