The National Institutes of Health (NIH) is the United States’ premier federal agency for biomedical and public health research, driving breakthroughs that improve health, lengthen life, and reduce disease worldwide. NIH funds and conducts scientific studies through its 27 institutes and centers, supporting both fundamental discovery and clinical innovation.
At JRL CHARTS, our NIH tag curates authoritative reporting on NIH funding decisions, research priorities, policy shifts, and collaborations — from domestic health initiatives to international biomedical partnerships. We also highlight how NIH actions affect LGBTQ communities, particularly in areas of HIV/AIDS prevention, vaccine development, transgender health research, and other public health equity issues.
This archive includes coverage of NIH grant changes, scientific leadership developments, federal research policy updates, and debates over funding priorities that influence not only U.S. healthcare but global medical science.
