چکیده
w T hat are the most pressing health problems that will face our society in the coming decades? How can the Linus Pauling Institute contribute to the resolution of society’s most pressing health problems? Which knowledge-based tools and skills will be necessary for LPI to successfully address our most pressing health problems in innovative ways, especially as they involve LPI’s research, outreach, and communications efforts? In 1996, a Memorandum of Understanding was signed between the Linus Pauling Institute of Science and Medicine in Palo Alto, California, and Oregon State University that established the Linus Pauling Institute on the OSU campus. Over the past 17 years, thanks to the outstanding faculty, staff, and students who joined the Institute, we have enjoyed considerable growth and remarkable successes in scientific research and many other areas, capped in 2011 by the completion of our new building, the Linus Pauling Science Center. Now that we have achieved the main goals and objectives set forth in the Memorandum of Understanding, it is time to once again carefully plan for the future. To move LPI successfully into this next phase, we have embarked upon a process to determine our strategic direction for the next five years. Our process is designed to help us consider where we would like to be in 10 to 15 years and then determine how we can achieve our aspirations. Our strategic plan will help us build upon our strengths and enhance excellence, which includes meaningful impact to meet the health needs of our society.
