US President Joe Biden chose cancer surgeon Monica Bertagnolli to be director of the National Institutes of Health after a year-long search to find a permanent replacement for the agency's long-serving head Francis Collins
Bertagnolli, if confirmed by the U.S. Senate, will become the second woman to serve as a permanent director of the NIH, which is part of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services with a budget of about $45 billion in 2022.
Bertagnolli was appointed in October to head the National Cancer Institute, which is a part of NIH, and also served as head of surgical oncology at the Dana-Farber Brigham Cancer Center, one of the nation's top cancer research facilities.
