OB-GYN IMM. DIV. ID:1-212-746-8799 JAN 15'93 14:21 No.006 P.02 525 EAST 8th STREFT, NEW YORK, N.Y 10021 THE NEW YORK HOSPITAL-CORNELL MEDICAL CENTER DEPARTMENT or OBSTETRIC6 AND GYNECOLOGY January 15, 1993 Senator Edward M Kennedy, Chairman Committee on Labor and Human Resources 428 Dirksen Senate Office Building Washington, D.C. 20510 FAX 202 224 3533 Dear Senator Kennedy: As a member of the scientific community, I urge you to support the recently proposed reforms for the NIH AIDS Research Program. Specifically, the NIH Office of AIDS Research (OAR) must be restructured and strengthened. The OAR Director should be a Presidential appointee who will oversee the entire NIH AIDS research effort. In addition, all NIH AIDS research programs should be consolidated into a single, separate line item in the federal budget, and should be appropriated to the OAR. Thank you for your continued support of basic biomedical research. Sincerely, Steven S. Witkin, Ph.D. Associate Professor Director, Immunology Division 5571095.0485.024
