National Library of Medicine Establishes New Division of Intramural Research

The National Library of Medicine (NLM)’s Intramural Research Program (IRP) has been officially renamed and reorganized as the Division of Intramural Research (DIR) led by NLM Scientific Director Richard Scheuermann, PhD. This milestone reflects NLM’s ongoing activities based on recommendations from a Blue Ribbon Panel Review of the intramural research program, aligns with NLM’s strategic direction, and represents a positive investment in growing a center of excellence for innovation in computational biology and health informatics research.
