Thanks! The second one I've already seen - alas, it is a book review. Awadewit ( talk) 17:11, 18 June 2009 (UTC)
The article briefly lists the various areas of research that NINDS covers. But it doesn't give the reader any idea of what they have achieved over the years. One example is the NINDS Antiepileptic Drug Development Program, which took up the challenge of developing new anticonvulsants when the drug industry lost interest in the late 1960s. At the time, the US was falling behind Europe wrt epilepsy (and it remains so, in some ways). See this history for a brief mention, this PDF article for more. You find much more by with Google: "Antiepileptic Drug Development Program".
Perhaps there are other achievements that can be attributed to NINDS?
BTW: There's a bit too much info on the current director. Surely most of that should go into her own article, and some of the praise ("distinguished career") toned down.

The article NINDS brain trauma research is presently an orphan. The subject of the article could be associated with the current article. Diptanshu 💬 06:53, 13 April 2017 (UTC)
