Draft Report of the Working Group to Establish a NExTRAC Framework

• NExTRAC_Framework_WG_Draft_Report_10-16-2020.pdf (653.08 KB)
• The draft report of the Working Group to Establish a NExTRAC Framework was prepared in response to the charge given by the NIH Director at the December 2019 NExTRAC meeting to:
  • “Describe effective approaches for prospectively identifying emerging biotechnologies or specific applications with reasonable potential to have important scientific, safety, or ethical considerations
  • Conceptualize a framework for NExTRAC deliberation of issues surrounding emerging biotechnologies and applications, including:
    • Guiding principles for when an emerging biotechnology or its applications would significantly benefit from further public deliberation
    • A potential process by which the NExTRAC will consider or evaluate any given emerging biotechnology or its applications”
