National Academy of Medicine

Working outside the framework of government, the Institute of Medicine provides the nation science-based advice on matters of biomedical science, medicine and health. A nonprofit organization specifically created for this purpose, as well as an honorific membership organization, the Institute of Medicine was chartered in 1970 as a component of the National Academy of Sciences. The institute's members, elected on the basis of their professional achievement and commitment to service, serve without compensation in the conduct of studies and other activities on matters of significance to health.
