The National Institute of General Medical Sciences (NIGMS) supports foundational biomedical research aimed at understanding how biological processes operate and how such knowledge underpins advances in diagnosing, treating, and preventing disease. It funds work in clinical areas that affect multiple organ systems, including perioperative pain management, pharmacology relevant to a broad range of drugs, and injuries, critical illness, sepsis, and wound healing. Researchers supported by NIGMS examine living systems at multiple levels—from molecules and cells to tissues and organs—across model organisms, humans, and populations. NIGMS is part of the National Institutes of Health, the U.S. federal government's principal medical research agency within the Department of Health and Human Services. The institute is based in Bethesda, Maryland, and it supports the vitality of the biomedical research enterprise by providing leadership in training the next generation of scientists and in expanding research capacity across the country.
