In October, the Friends of the Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) hosted a bipartisan group of congressional staff for an up-close look at research on metabolic and genetic syndromes and obstetrics. 

The delegation visited two NICHD intramural labs, participated in a roundtable discussion with extramural researchers and met with NICHD Director Dr. Diana Bianchi and NICHD Clinical Director Dr. Catherine Gordon.
