I know you're trying to justify it, but I think at a time when we are seeing these kinds of outbreaks that it is disconcerting to all of us to see the public health side of CDC NIH lose a lot of their experts. Let me ask you about the Pediatric Trial Next Network which funds studies into safe use of medication for children. Are you aware that last year's NIH Pediatric Trial Network received only part of its funding? I know there's some contracting issues with it. I'm absolutely committed to making sure that we do have opportunities for children across the country to work on clinical work, participate in trials. (06:31–06:47)
