<p>Dear HEAL Community,</p>
<p>Last week, we gathered for the&nbsp;<a href="https://heal.nih.gov/news/events/fourth-heal-investigator-meeting">Fourth Annual NIH HEAL Initiative Investigator Meeting</a>&nbsp;to take stock of our research amid the evolving crises of opioid overdose, addiction, and pain. This event provides a yearly&nbsp;opportunity to interact with colleagues and meet many new investigators who are part of this large research endeavor. After 2 years of remote-only attendance, seeing 400 HEAL investigators and community partners in person was invigorating! Many more attended virtually. This coming year, there will be even more opportunities to connect via our monthly <a href="https://heal.nih.gov/news/events/headliners">HEAL Headliners</a> webinar series that will shine a light on the wide array of HEAL-funded projects addressing pain, opioid use disorder, overdose, and the important intersections between those topics.</p>
<p>Real improvements for people affected by pain and opioids are in view, made possible based upon the hard work of our incredible research community. In recognition of these accomplishments, we debuted the <a href="https://heal.nih.gov/director/heal-director-awards">NIH HEAL Initiative Director’s Awards</a> for advancing the HEAL mission in four key dimensions: research excellence, interdisciplinary science, mentoring, and community partnerships. Of note, the new HEAL Trailblazer Award recognizes HEAL-funded scientists in the early to middle stages of their careers who are breaking ground and expanding research in new directions.</p>

<p>HEAL was launched with the vision that science can provide solutions to public health challenges like the pain, opioid, and overdose crisis. I am proud to see the progress that our team has made untangling complicated challenges driving pain and substance use disorders. Our accomplishments reflect the many minds, approaches, and research questions that address this urgent need. I am deeply grateful to this year’s award winners – and to our whole community for pressing on to help communities across America.</p><p>Connect with us by email at <a href="/cdn-cgi/l/email-protection#92dad7d3dee3e7f7e1e6fbfdfcd2fdf6bcfcfbfabcf5fde4"><span class="__cf_email__" data-cfemail="80c8c5c1ccf1f5e5f3f4e9efeec0efe4aeeee9e8aee7eff6">[email&#160;protected]</span></a>, and <a href="https://public.govdelivery.com/accounts/USNIHNIDA/signup/43013" target="_blank">subscribe to the NIH HEAL Initiative<sup>®</sup> email list</a> to get the monthly HEAL Digest sent directly to your inbox.&nbsp;</p>
