Collins announced the launch of UNITE, a new NIH initiative aimed at bringing an end to structural racism in biomedical research. In his statement, Dr. Collins recalled NIH's longstanding support of programs to expand the diversity of the scientific workforce, but he acknowledged shortfalls in NIH's efforts to bring '…diverse perspectives, backgrounds, and skillsets to complex scientific problems.'
