The Office of the Scientific Director (OSD) launched a multi-year initiative in FY12 to consolidate the highly dispersed research programs of the Division of Intramural Research (DIR), NICHD. Over 70 distinct laboratories and research cores in the DIR were distributed across seven buildings, which proved to be a barrier to creating the kind of interdisciplinary and team-based research environment, both in basic and clinical research groups, that is needed in a contemporary biomedical research setting. Through the recommendations of a Blue Ribbon Panel, commissioned by the NIH and NICHD leadership, which reported to the DIR in summer 2013, the DIR was supported in its efforts to consolidate space. As a result, and through careful planning with the Office of Research Facilities (ORF), NIH leadership, and administrative and scientific staff of the DIR, a plan was developed and funds were set aside to move, in succession, to a smaller number of building clusters. Completion of all moves is projected for FY21. Laboratories with common intellectual and scientific interests were reorganized and will be co-located in six building clusters on the NIH campus in Bethesda, Maryland. Space and facilities planning leaders have consulted with investigators to optimize research space and achieve renovations necessary to modernize our research laboratories. The co-location of research cores and the opportunity to share resources and costly equipment were critical factors, including sharing with other NIH institutes, which is in accordance with outcomes of NIH long-term planning for the Intramural Research Program. Among the other stimuli for the consolidation of space and relocation of investigators are the planned demolition of two aging facilities that are slated for demolition by ORF, buildings 18/32 and 9. These buildings have been slated for demolition for several years. All of these circumstances have combined with the new strategic plan and organizational restructuring achieved since summer 2013, and approved to go into effect in on October 1, 2015. New laboratory clusters will be led by an Associate Scientific Director (ASD) for each functional area of scientific expertise, who will oversee space and facility needs and resource management for their group of integrated laboratories and investigative staff. The initial space moves began in FY12 with the new Porter Neurosciences Complex, phase II, where a core group of cell and structural biology and neurosciences labs, along with imaging cores, will be housed. Designs also began in FY12 for some of the labs in the Program in Physical Biology for pending moves to Bldg. 10. In FY13, design began for the Cell Biology and Metabolism Program, Molecular Medicine Program, and some of the labs in the Program in Developmental Neuroscience. In FY14, construction began for the programs designed the previous year. In FY15, moves have begun for the previous programs while design for some of the labs in the Program in Cellular Regulation and Metabolism and Program in Physical Biology. FY21 will be the final construction and moves for these labs as well as the labs within the Program in Developmental Endocrinology. There will still be renovations and possible moves but not as large as this effort has been. Complementing the physical proximity of laboratories will be affinity groups (AG) of scientists with shared research interests. The facilities will allow for AGs to promote scientific exchange, collaborations, and the formation of new multidisciplinary teams to address new research ideas in a fluid and dynamic manner.

科学主任办公室 (OSD) 在 2012 财年启动了一项多年计划，以整合 NICHD 校内研究部 (DIR) 高度分散的研究项目。 DIR 的 70 多个不同的实验室和研究核心分布在七栋建筑中，这被证明是在基础和临床研究小组中创建当代生物医学所需的跨学科和基于团队的研究环境的障碍。研究设置。 通过 NIH 和 NICHD 领导层委托的蓝带小组的建议（该小组于 2013 年夏天向 DIR 报告），DIR 的整合空间工作得到了支持。 因此，通过与研究设施办公室 (ORF)、NIH 领导层以及 DIR 的行政和科学人员的仔细规划，制定了一项计划并拨出资金，以相继转移到较少数量的研究中心。建设集群。 所有搬迁预计将于 2021 财年完成。 具有共同知识和科学兴趣的实验室进行了重组，并将位于马里兰州贝塞斯达 NIH 校园的六个建筑群中。 空间和设施规划领导者已与研究人员协商，以优化研究空间并实现研究实验室现代化所需的翻新。 研究核心的共同定位以及共享资源和昂贵设备的机会是关键因素，包括与其他 NIH 机构共享，这符合 NIH 校内研究计划的长期规划结果。 整合空间和重新安置调查人员的其他刺激因素包括计划拆除 ORF 计划拆除的两座老化设施，即 18/32 和 9 号建筑。这些建筑已计划拆除数年。 所有这些情况都与自2013年夏季以来实现的新战略计划和组织重组相结合，并于2015年10月1日批准生效。新的实验室集群将由每个职能领域的副科学总监（ASD）领导科学专业知识，他们将监督其综合实验室和调查人员小组的空间和设施需求以及资源管理。 最初的空间搬迁始于 2012 财年新的波特神经科学综合体二期工程，其中将容纳细胞和结构生物学和神经科学实验室的核心小组以及成像核心。 物理生物学项目中的一些实验室也于 2012 财年开始设计，即将迁至大楼。 10. 2013 财年，细胞生物学和代谢项目、分子医学项目以及发育神经科学项目的一些实验室开始设计。 2014 财年，上一年设计的项目开始建设。 2015 财年，之前的项目已经开始迁移，同时为细胞调节和代谢项目以及物理生物学项目中的一些实验室进行设计。 2021 财年将是这些实验室以及发育内分泌学项目内的实验室的最终建设和搬迁。 仍然会进行翻修和可能的搬迁，但不会像现在这样大规模。 由具有共同研究兴趣的科学家组成的亲和小组（AG）将补充实验室的物理邻近性。 这些设施将使 AG 能够促进科学交流、合作和组建新的多学科团队，以流畅和动态的方式解决新的研究想法。
