I just want to clarify that I'm not the chief lobbyist. I'm not the chief recruiter, either, for scientists within government.
I'd just like to respond by saying that I strongly believe in the importance of intramural science. I think intramural scientists play a critical role in our country, be it for evidence-based decision-making, our regulatory processes, etc. Part of my mandate is to review the state of intramural science and to make recommendations. That is something that I will be getting into.
I guess your question is about intramural science.
