The National Institutes of Health, more commonly referred to as NIH, is an agency operating under the United States Department of Health and Human Services that is primarily accuntable for funding the country's biomedical and health-related research studies.

The programs and activities of the NIH are tailored to contribute to the achievement of its mission, which is to "seek fundamental knowledge about the nature and behavior of living systems and the application of that knowledge to enhance health, lengthen life, and reduce the burdens of illness and disability."
