Introduction

The National Institutes of Health (NIH), a part of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, is the nation's medical research agency — making important discoveries that improve health and save lives. NIH is the largest biomedical research agency in the world.

History:

The National Institutes of Health (NIH) is the primary agency of the US Government responsible for biomedical & public health research.

• It was founded in the late 1870s, and is now part of the United States of health & human services.
• The majority of NIH facilities are located in Bethesda, Maryland. The NIH conducts its own scientific research through its Intramural Research Program (IRP) and provides major biomedical research funding to non-NIH research facilities through its Extramural Research Program. The NIH comprises 27 separate institutes and centers of different biomedical disciplines and is responsible for many scientific accomplishments, including the discovery of fluoride to prevent tooth decay, the use of lithium to manage bipolar disorder and the creation of vaccines against hepatitis Haemophilus influenzae (HIB), and human papillomavirus(HPV).
• In 2019, the NIH was ranked #2 in the world for biomedical sciences by the Nature Index.

What is the purpose of the National Institute of Health?

• Mission
• NIH seeks to enhance health, lengthen life, and reduce illness and disability.

The goals of the NIH are:

• to foster fundamental creative discoveries, innovative research strategies, and their applications as a basis for ultimately protecting and improving health;
• to develop, maintain, and renew scientific human and physical resources that will ensure the Nation's capability to prevent disease;
• to expand the knowledge base in medical and associated sciences in order to enhance the Nation's economic well-being and ensure a continued high return on the public investment in research; and
• to exemplify and promote the highest level of scientific integrity, public accountability, and social responsibility in the conduct of science.

Director of NIH

• Francis S. Collins, served August 17, 2009 – present.

Budget

• To allocate funds, the NIH must first obtain its budget from Congress. This process begins with institute and center (IC) leaders collaborating with scientists to determine the most important and promising research areas within their fields. IC leaders discuss research areas with NIH management who then develops a budget request for continuing projects, new research proposals, and new initiatives from the Director.

Core Criteria for Planning and Reporting

• Trans-NIH Approach
• Annual Budget Performance Target-Based Approach
• Balanced Scientific Research Portfolio
