Coordination of Programs on Domestic Animal Genomics: The Federal Framework

Abstract

The Interagency Working Group (IWG) on Domestic Animal Genomics was chartered in 2002 with the charge of enhancing interagency communication and awareness of the importance of agricultural and companion animal species, increasing leverage of investments across government agencies, and positioning of agriculture as a critical element of the Federal genomics programs. The Committee on Science provides oversight over the IWG activities. The membership of the IWG consists of representatives from the Department of Agriculture (USDA), Department of Energy (DOE), Food and Drug Administration (FDA), National Institutes of Health (NIH), National Science Foundation (NSF), Office of Science and Technology Policy (OSTP), Office of Management and Budget (OMB), and U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID).
