the nih is pure research. so when there is a disease, what we do at my institute when you are thinking about infectious disease, is we understand how that disease evolves, we develop drugs, we develop vaccines, we do prevention modality. we do the research that allows you to intervene. the fda is the regulatory agency. they monitor drugs and interventions, and that is within our own government. when you go globally, the who is kind of like a global cdc, what the cdc is for us. they sort of coordinate health globally throughout the various nations. >> let me show you some video that you probably have not seen for a long time. this goes back to 1998, it is very quick. it is from the debate with george herbert walker bush. >> there is nothing corny with having sports heroes, they are out there setting the pace. i think of dr. fauci, you will probably never heard of him. he is a fine researcher, a top doctor at the national institutes of health. he is working hard on aids. >> that is 1988. do you remember that? >>

there was an nih panel that recommended that the project be funded up to $500 million annually up to 2025. to be clear, the brain initiative, what has had a lot of momentum, is not incorporated into future funding, yet. to make the case __ you look at the societal cost of just alzheimer's alone. let alone, all the other things that are encompassing brain disease. whenever i say obesity, or eating disorder __ keyboard like, how is that related to the brain. how is in it related __ isn't it relates the brain? there's only things that impact daily lives. one in four people in this country will have a diagnosable mental disorder. that means, every single person is affected by somebody __ somebody in your family, a coworker to affect your live. if you think about that, the burden is huge. we can do something about it. technology is here to make a difference. we just have to pay attention to it, and put some effort towards it. >> after all __ diabetes, heart disease, these are problems that science and medicine has __ i would not say resolved, but we have a handle on it. the only diseases

a lot of people are very concerned about nih. nih, look at the budget of nih. it's shocking.t goes up -- it's astounding how much it went up. somebody once told me that the president has it at a certain lef level and then the house gets it and adds onto that. now for the last five years, it's actually been reduced. it looks like a mountain and now we're coming back down t not as much as the mountain you talked about before on defense but we're coming back down. there will be many, many practical consequences. i don't think republicans will do that. i talked to two people that are involved, staffers who are involved in the budget process, and they both said the same thing, that there will be ways that they'll be able to get a buck here and a buck there. they'll say they live by the caps but they really didn't live by the level of the caps. >> i'm less prone to think that they'll find ways around it, but i think ron's got some of the right things. what do you do when you have immediate needs that have to come out of your budget, whether you're a or an institution? you generally

for example, in my laboratory we started developing a vaccine in 2008, and thanks to funding from the nih and also a partnership with a large pharmaceutical company we now have a vaccine varily close to beginning human clinical trials, and several other laboratories both government and academic develop promising vaccines, and some of those are partnered with companies. >> not to alarm people unduly, but we should talk more about what the course of this disease is like. what is a sufferer likely to experience? >> well, i haven't interviewed patience in the acute stage of the disease, but i had the opportunity to visit the dominican republic late last spring when the outbreak was really starting to peak there, and many of the people who had been infected told me that there was a very sudden on set of the disease. they could remember literally to the hour when they began feeling sick, and they developed very high fever, typically a headache, severe aches in the joints and muscles, and what's different about chikungunya is a similar disease, especially dangy, for example, several weeks to a c

>> well, actually, it's very exciting because, you know, i first began talking to nih in 1986, and just last year, the new director, francis collins, had -- well, actually, three years ago, he had a committee put together to investigate what pests were being done -- tests were being done on the over 300 nihchimpanzees and found nothing was beneficial to humans. he said, fine, they can go into ankle sanctuary, into retirement. we have to raise the money now to get them all but a lot of them were already in chism mp haven sanctuary. more and more chimps real in medical reserves. >> what do you think of zoos? zoos. some zoos shouldn't be -- the change in zoos over my life has been incredible and, well, you know, yes, there is an idea that well done, it's the best thing but in so many cases, they are under threat. their habitats is being destroyed. hunters out there and you look at a group in a really good zoo that has the right kind of environment and you think, well, there may be a chimp -- where would i rather be? so, you know, in the really well protected places, obviously you want wild

has been very biological very much on brain initiatives and i don't have a lot of contact with the nih and i know the director has a blog that i patiently look at. but they fund research is so not necessarily something i'm following that closely. >> host: with all of the information out there and people self diagnose? >> guest: of course. why wouldn't they be. sometimes they are self diagnosing right. i don't think it is a bad thing. somebody looks and says yes i've been feeling that way i think i do have depression or my anxiety has had a point it is interfering with my life and maybe i should go get some help. we look at the list of symptoms which is what what the psychiatrists does and says yes i have this come of this, this and this, i must have that problem. >> host: you close your book shrink-wrapped talking about your visit to new orleans after katrina. why? >> guest: i think it started there. it's not really so much for closing as we go through kind of a white did we do this. we all take a moment to talk about how did i get sucked into this project so i started mine with katrin

[applause] ms. murray couldn't make it hit today, that we have on the house that congresswoman who is here. we're proud of her. [applause] last week in my state of the union address, i focused on what we needed to do to make sure middle class economics helps more americans get ahead in the new economy. help make families make ends meet in a constantly changing economy. offer more opportunities for people to upgrade their skills for better paying jobs in this economy. we've got to build the world's most competitive economies so that businesses create jobs here in that united states and not someplace else. the last part is what i want to focus on t

now, the nih does participate many this, but they do the basic research. and bioengineering companies that do incredible work. by the way i was talking to some of these executives. it costs sometimes half a billion dollars in private investment capital stuart. for senator warren to say we're going to take profits away from you, i think this is even more important, stuart, it's terrible for our health because if you delay or disrupt the development of these new drugs, you're basically, you know a death sentence for people who have alzheimer's, cancer or others. stuart: but arguably, she is leading the charge among democrats not to be necessarily the 2016 presidential candidate but she's leading the intellectual charge pulling that party to the left. and doug schoen, he reports today that in new hampshire and iowa elizabeth warren is polling very very well against hillary clinton. >> yeah. stuart: you're obviously a private enterprise guy. assess for us how strong is the challenge from the collectivist left vis-a-vis ms. warren? >> well, first of all, it tel

the nih issues this report.led "kate." >> last night a study from harvard came out which was pretty wild. it showed the cells that protect the brain, the inflammation cells are involved in areas where there's chronic pain. it gives us new hope for potential treatment. the real message here is that we need to pay attention as a country. this is costing over $600 billion to our country. so we have to put resources for research, do the right long-term studies and figure out a new way here. we are all suffering. >> as the nih says this is a silent epidemic. maybe we need to think about other treatments other than opioids which have exploded to other kinds of treatments for this kind of pain that's very real. >> i'm with you. we need new ideas and a new car on this chronic pain. >> great plug for "kate." too. thank you. >>> amazon.com is delivering month are than just packages. the online giant's new success with original entertainment. and why woody allen, yes, woody allen just signed on. that's next. >>> tomorrow j

the nih budget of $30 billion a gear has driven so much new knowledge.we try not to duplicate that. we have a lot less money than that, so we tried to build on that. we have a very good partnership with them. we have some areas like nutrition or early delivery that the signs is not understood. so we've had to go down to fairly basic levels. we wish other funders would develop those understandings and yet because they haven't, now some of the very basic nutrition studies, that is the scientific landscape. it's got to be done. >> you talk about agriculture. tell me about the issue of water. water is in a sense always being renewed by rain. sometimes you have much, and sometimes you have too little. there are parts of backup where they wait until the reins, and you will have years where very little rain comes. that is tough, because unlike in the u.s. where if you get a bad year, you have savings account you have storage you can get through year without malnutrition. in africa, they are always right on the edge. a little bit of change in the weather and the

and human life, whether it's funding nih to find treatment and cures for disease or putting limitations deadly force by individuals who use it excessively are the most important thing government can do, because the difference between life and death is the most important thing in our existence and life and as government officials. not how much money we have. and if we can keep that for ourselves. >> congressman, the reason no one has introduced a bill like this is they fear the politics of it, including the democrats. they fear anything that might antagonize police, as we've seen in new york city, mayor de blasio having problems. they fear those politics. >> there are strong members, generally in the congressional black caucus and the progressive caucus who do have concern. john conyers and bobby scott have a bill. they passed a bill. not the same level and depth as mine, but they have concerns, too. then there's john lewis. as i watched "selma" i thought what a blessing to get to know him, a true saint that's served in congress 28 years. and julian von is going to celebrate his 75th bir

she was charged when nih broke ground in bethesda, for instance, a place we all know well now. she also chaired the worst-named committee in all of federal history. i am sorry to have to -- it is important, so i will have to name it, but i'm really sorry. she chaired the enter departmental committee to coordinate health and welfare activities. it was from that position that she supervised development of the first national health plan. health care had been omitted from the social security bill because of opposition from doctors. that opposition was so scary that fdr decided to leave health care aside. the decision was made really late, to put health care aside and put the bill forward with unemployment insurance and old age pensions, hoping they could get those throughout, and then he said, i will come back to health care. which he did. here he opened the issue after the social security act passed. he put roche in charge of that effort. the plant she devised included adding disability insurance to the social security system providing federal moneys to maintain and build communit

report was that we should invest all our research and development money into government agencies like nih and the rest. people said, no, no, no no. we'll do them but the primary focus of research pure and applied, should be at the universities. anywhere you travel in the world find me. anywhere in the world find me any country, any leader doesn't acknowledge the united states has the best research universities in the world. that's why we are so good. so guys, we've been ahead of the curve. except now people are catching up. no other country had universal education for 12 years including great britain. for the first quarter of the century. and only until recently have they started that. in china and other countries. nobody has the great research universities we have. so what's the next move? what's the next logical move to stay ahead of the curve? 14 years. if i had my way, figure out how to pay for it, there should be 16 years. college should be free. [ applause ] i can't have my way. and it's a legitimate reason why. i'm not being a wise guy. that's tougher. more costly. survey's done. a

envisioned the national center for sleep disorders research to be a coordinating mechanism not just within nih but across all federal agencies, so we have a coordinating mechanism. it seems to me we should think about using that and how do we develop a coordinated research plan moving forward? two of the areas, i'll quit in two seconds. two areas they're interested in is looking at biomarkers and can we get a measure essentially of sleep drive and how sleepy people are and the other area of real interest in biomedical research is what's called implementation research. i'm no expert in it but the idea is implementing obvious guidelines. for example, when the asthma group came out and said people should be prescribed inhaled steroids, the prescriptions for inhaled steroids declined after that. that was not a good thing. and so there are actually barriers and it seems to me the concepts of implementation -- you're doing research, but then how does -- as dr. watson said, research without action is just academic. what are the barriers to doing that and i think a field of implementation research whi

the funding is going to go to nih, the national cancer institute, fda, and other places.also a push to compile a national data base of more than a million americans and all of their health information. and that will of course include genomic sequencing. but also include things like lifestyle, things from their medical records, use of personal health devices and all sorts of things. it's a comprehensive project but starting with cancer. it's not just sequencing but illumina is among the companies invited to the white house will be at that event today. it starts later this morning. other include vertex, regeneron. back to you guys. >> all right, meg. thank you very much. in fact, we are very lucky today to have a very special guest joining us this morning to talk more about modern medicine. our guest host is fred hassan. he's partner at warburg pinkus. and fred you hear what meg's talking about. you heard what the president has indicated. it sounds fantastic but it harkens back to 1971. where have we come over those four decades? what can we expect this time around? >> well

the nih here in the u.s.have enough support to make sure we would be ready. we're about ten years behind. >> you didn't have the support because let's be honest you didn't have the right people getting sick. if you had people in the more developed world, people who have more money, getting sick you would have had more movement. both on the public field and the private field. >> that is exactly right. >> that is an a reality of the human condition. is that often too many who help themselves get help first. >> and also we're seeing it again now that the headlines and news cameras are moving away from the ebola epidemic because we don't have cases in the u.s. any more we have to question what does that say about us that there was a near hysteria in parts of the u.s. and we had a few cases here there are still thousands dieing in west africa and it seems that we don't care as much. >> you don't want to learn the hard way. you want to treat it where it is and help others the and we're seeing commitment from the u.

so of course the trials today in liberia with being mon tord by the nih from the u.s.control of when those would start. my expectation is that all being equal, we should start to say data over the next four to five months. a little timing of that is going to depend on what the continued intensity of the epidemic really is. but i think as we move through to the middle of the year we're going to know more about these vaccines and we're going to know pretty much exactly what we have. >> right. and you mentioned just the continuing intensity of the ebola outbreak. i mean we are seeing new cases starting to decline. however, it is still a huge problem. but how does that complicate a trial that could seek to enroll 30,000 people. >> it's great news that the case load looks like it's beginning to slow down or drop. that's very positive. it may take a little bit longer for it to achieve end points. the reality is that this is a key opportunity for us to first of all quickly develop a potential vaccine that could work but also to understand what we have. so that whether it's go

over half of the budget research for the entire world is the nih budget.dget go up. it's disappointing it's kept flat and the question is do we push that up? from our point of view it's very, very important. the work we do builds on that basic research and the u.s. government is our partner in aids relerch, malaria research, all the key areas we work in. no way philanthropic money can take that place. we want it to stay strong. >> looking at the breakthroughs. banking breakthrough and bringing mobile banking to the poor, and how they can radically transform their lives. explain that if you could? >> that's taking off in all kinds of countries. kenya, tanzania philippines, bangladesh. you're seeing basically on a smartphone not the old plastic phones we used to use, people in rural areas can save tiny amounts of money. they don't want to take a bus, out on a farm, save $1 or $2 a day, when there's a health emergency in the family an episode of malaria or a hunger season they can tide over those times and tell you, i then have the money to put my children in
