The National Institute of Nursing Research (NINR), under the US National Institutes of Health, is an agency that supports clinical and basic research with the objective of establishing a scientific basis for the care of individuals across the life span.

The NINR makes it their mission to promote and improve the health of individuals, families, communities, and populations. In line with this, the agency also supports research studies that are greatly focused on health promotion and disease prevention, quality of life, health disparities, and end-of-life care.
