BRUCE CUTHBERT: Good morning, everyone. Welcome to our July 2016 meeting of the IACC, and welcome to the July weather in Washington for all of those of you who came in from out of town, as did I sleeping in 50-degree nights a few days ago, so I'm re-acclimating myself. We're happy to have you all here. We will be joined today as well by Dr. Thomas Novotny, the HHS national autism coordinator and deputy assistant secretary for health. He is not here as yet, but he should be here shortly and we will look forward to having him join us as a guest of the committee. We'd also like to welcome Dr. Stuart Shapira as a new member of the IACC. He is replacing Dr. Cynthia Moore, who was called away to take on additional responsibilities with respect to the Zika virus outbreak and containing that. So, Dr. Shapira, I wonder if you would like to 5 tell the committee about your expertise and your work as it relates to autism. DR. STUART SHAPIRA: Sure. Thank you very much. So, again, I'm Stuart Shapira. I'm trained as a pediatrician and as a clinical geneticist, metabolic geneticist, and molecular geneticist. I trained at Baylor -- I trained -- I'm sorry. So I trained at University of Chicago and then did further clinical training at Harvard and at Children's Hospital in Boston. After training, I started clinical work at Baylor College of Medicine in Houston and then moved to the University of Texas Health Science Center in San Antonio and practiced clinical genetics and metabolic genetics for 14 years. I came to the CDC 11 years ago. I was originally on the Pediatric Genetics Team at the CDC coordinating genetics components of several large case control studies, including the autism research study at CDC, SEED, the Study to Explore 6 Early Development. And I'm the PI on the dysmorphology part of SEED. I moved into the position of the associate director for science and chief medical officer for the National Center on Birth Defects and Developmental Disabilities at CDC three years ago and have been serving in that capacity. And I'm very excited to be here. I look forward to meeting everyone on the committee. Thank you very much. DR. CUTHBERT: Thank you. We will appreciate having your expertise to inform our decisions, so welcome. Okay. Now, I'm happy to turn it over to Dr. Susan Daniels, the coordinator of our Autism Committee at NIMH, and I want to take this opportunity to thank Susan, as always, for doing virtually 100 percent of the work or leading her group who do all the work to put together the agenda, get everything all ready, and have us 7 prepared for the meeting. So, Susan, thank you, and I'll turn it over to you to take the roll and approve the minutes of the last meeting. DR. SUSAN DANIELS: Thank you. Welcome, everyone, and thank you to the team for all your work getting us ready for this meeting. I'd like to take the roll first to see who's here. So Bruce Cuthbert? DR. CUTHBERT: Here. DR. DANIELS: Jim Battey? DR. JAMES BATTEY: Here. DR. DANIELS: Cindy Lawler? DR. CINDY LAWLER: Here. DR.

AMY GOODMAN: Here. DR. DANIELS: Shannon Haworth? MS. SHANNON HAWORTH: Here. DR. DANIELS: David Mandell is not going to be with us today. Brian Parnell? MR. BRIAN PARNELL: I am here. DR. DANIELS: Kevin Pelphrey is not going to be able to make it today. Edlyn Pena? DR. EDLYN PENA: Here. DR. DANIELS: Louis Reichardt? (No response.) DR. DANIELS: He may be on his way. 10 Rob Ring? DR. ROB RING: Here. DR. DANIELS: John Robison? MR. JOHN ROBISON: Yep. DR. DANIELS: Alison Singer? MS. ALISON SINGER: Here. DR. DANIELS: Julie Taylor? DR. JULIE TAYLOR: Here. DR. DANIELS: Wonderful. DR. CUTHBERT: Thank you. DR. DANIELS: So perfect timing. DR. CUTHBERT: Thank you. DR. DANIELS: Would you like to -- DR. CUTHBERT: Yeah, let me just -- DR. DANIELS: -- say anything? DR. CUTHBERT: -- Let me break in here to welcome Dr. Thomas Novotny, as I mentioned, the HHS national autism coordinator and deputy assistant secretary for health. Welcome, Dr. Novotny. 11 DR. THOMAS NOVOTNY: Thanks. Are we on here? Okay, great. Nice to see you again. Sorry for my delay but traffic coming up here from HHS building in downtown D.C. is sometimes unpredictable, so I got here a little bit late. But thanks for the opportunity to come and say hello. I'll just give you a very, very, very brief update because this is a slow-moving process of trying to mobilize resources within HHS to accommodate the report requirements that are -- is the main sort of deliverable that I need to produce as a result of the Autism CARES Act. We've assembled a working group of representatives from across the Department with equities in autism care and have set up our first meeting of the group to lay out our report content on August 29. And this will be then the sort of kickoff to the development of the report, which we anticipate being able to produce by the end of this calendar year. Things do get in the way 12 sometimes, but I'm pretty confident that we can do that. We've got a good sense of an outline on this. It's, again, devoted towards -- specifically towards the transition period, which I know there's going to be a subject matter discussion this morning, which I'm looking forward to hearing. And it will involve representatives from several of the agencies in the writing of this. As you I think also know that we do not have any appropriations for the work of this coordination activity, but we are going to be able to do this within the confines of our existing resources, and I think we'll be able to come up a reasonable interim report.

  • Welcome to the New Carnegie Reporter
    VOLUME 7 / NUMBER 5 / FALL 2015 CARNEGIE REPORTER WELCOME TO THE NEW CARNEGIE REPORTER n 2000, Carnegie Corporation of New York published the first issue of the Reporter. It was meant to be “a magazine simply about ideas…a hub for foundation ideas in the United States and abroad.” Today’s Reporter has a brand-new look—it’s bigger, with more room for colorful illustrations and striking photographs—and Imore readable, with generous white space and a seamless flow from story to story. Yet its intention is the same as on day one—the sharing of important ideas. Our cover story takes you to the Arab world, to learn how courageous social scientists are conducting groundbreaking research in a tumultuous time. Fifty years after the signing of the Voting Rights Act we assess the impact of Shelby v. Holder and see what the Corporation’s grantees are doing to make voting easier and less restrictive. Our education story shows how more effective math courses are helping community college students get ahead. There’s a dramatic photo essay on Russia; and the latest issue of Carnegie Results, bound into this issue, tells the story of a successful workshop series aimed at advancing Jewish-Muslim engagement. A letter from Vartan Gregorian, President of Carnegie Corporation, is featured in every Reporter. In this issue he writes about the negative impact of data overload on knowledge acquisition. Fifteen years ago, introducing the magazine, he wrote, “We hope it will help you understand Carnegie Corporation and its philosophies on education, democracy, international peace…the areas in which we currently concentrate our grantmaking.
