Operating under the 1863 Congressional charter of the National Academy of Sciences, the National Academies are private, nonprofit institutions that work outside of government to provide objective advice on matters of science, technology, and health. Studies from the National Academies are often congressionally mandated or commissioned by government agencies, and their recommendations can have lasting impact on domestic and global policy. Who We Are An independent, evidence-based scientific advisor. The NAM is committed to applying scientific rigor and objective evidence to achieve balanced, authoritative solutions to complex challenges in health. To carry out our work, we harness the talents and expertise of accomplished, thoughtful volunteers and undertake meticulous processes to avoid and balance bias. Our foundational goal is to be the nation’s most reliable source for credible scientific and policy advice on matters concerning human health. A national academy with global scope. In this increasingly interconnected world, good health knows no borders. Although the National Academies were originally created to advise the U.S. government and advance the well-being of the U.S. population, our mandate is now much broader. The NAM includes members from across the globe and partners with organizations worldwide to address challenges that affect us all. Committed to catalyzing action and achieving impact. We seek to identify and generate momentum around critical issues in health; marshal diverse expertise to build evidence-based solutions; inspire action through collaboration and public engagement; and foster the next generation of leaders and innovators. Collaborative and interdisciplinary. In partnership with the National Academy of Sciences, the National Academy of Engineering, and other stakeholders, the NAM draws on expertise across disciplines and domains to advance science, policy, and practice in health, medicine, and their many intersecting fields. Reflecting our conviction that health impacts should be a consideration in all policy decisions, we lend health and medical expertise to the broader endeavors of the Academies, including work in social sciences and education, earth and life sciences, transportation, technology, and more. An honorific society for exceptional leaders.The NAM has more than 2,000 U.S. and international members elected by their peers in recognition of outstanding achievement in health, medicine, and intersecting fields. Our members—nearly 50 of whom are Nobel laureates—are the architects of major scientific breakthroughs, policy leaders in the United States and abroad, exceptional care practitioners, and many of the brightest minds in academia. Through a commitment to volunteer service, NAM members help guide the work and advance the mission of the NAM and the National Academies. LETTER FROM THE PRESIDENT An inscription near the entrance to the Keck Center, where more than 1,000 employees of the National Academies report to work every day, bears a quote from Albert Einstein: “The right to search for truth implies also a duty; one must not conceal any part of what one has recognized to be true.” I find it fitting that the dedicated staff of the The principle that science is both a right National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and a duty is at the heart of our mission at the and Medicine pass this reminder every morning.

However, This is wrong. Science, as Einstein put it so while Einstein admonishes us not to “conceal” aptly, is the search for truth.

In 2016, the NAM made important strides Science cures diseases, lifts nations out of toward this goal with a sustained focus on field poverty, and breaks down false and harmful leadership, capacity building, and strategic barriers between us.
