The Institute&#8217;s full history dates back to the creation of the Office of Minority Programs in the NIH Office of the Director in 1990. Then in 1993, the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) established the Office of Research on Minority Health, which developed a research agenda for minority health at NIH.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Learn More About:\u00a0\u00a0<\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nimhd.nih.gov\/\">National Institute on Minority Health and Health Disparities (NIMHD)<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.jsums.edu\/jsucorc\/files\/2013\/11\/NIH.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-3241\" src=\"https:\/\/www.jsums.edu\/jsucorc\/files\/2013\/11\/NIH.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"313\" height=\"64\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>A part of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, NIH is the largest biomedical research agency in the world.\u00a0\u00a0NIH\u2019s mission 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 illness and disability.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Learn More About:\u00a0\u00a0<\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nimhd.nih.gov\/\">National Institutes of Health (NIH)<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><strong><br \/>\nNHLBI Links<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Press Releases\u00a0\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.nhlbi.nih.gov\/news\/press-releases\/\">https:\/\/www.nhlbi.nih.gov\/news\/press-releases\/<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Public Interest News Items\u00a0\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.nhlbi.nih.gov\/public\/FYIfront.htm\">https:\/\/www.nhlbi.nih.gov\/public\/FYIfront.htm<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Health Information for the Public\u00a0\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.nhlbi.nih.gov\/health\/index.htm#tools\">https:\/\/www.nhlbi.nih.gov\/health\/index.htm#tools<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Related NHLBI Websites\/Educational Tutorials\u00a0\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.nhlbi.nih.gov\/health\/public\/web\/index.htm\">https:\/\/www.nhlbi.nih.gov\/health\/public\/web\/index.htm<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Risk Assessment Tool for estimating risk of having a heart attack\u00a0\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/cvdrisk.nhlbi.nih.gov\/calculator.asp\">http:\/\/cvdrisk.nhlbi.nih.gov\/calculator.asp<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Heart and Vascular Diseases\u00a0\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.nhlbi.nih.gov\/health\/prof\/heart\/index.htm\">http:\/\/www.nhlbi.nih.gov\/health\/prof\/heart\/index.htm<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>NIMHD Links<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>News Releases\u00a0\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.nimhd.nih.gov\/news-events\/news-releases\/\">https:\/\/www.nimhd.nih.gov\/news-events\/news-releases\/<\/a><\/p>\n<p>News and Events\u00a0\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.nimhd.nih.gov\/news-events\/\">https:\/\/www.nimhd.nih.gov\/news-events\/<\/a><\/p>\n<p>E-News letter\u00a0\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/content.govdelivery.com\/accounts\/USNIHNIMHD\/bulletins\/1ac3efa\">https:\/\/www.nhlbi.nih.gov\/public\/FYIfront.htm<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Education, Training and Outreach Programs\u00a0\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.nimhd.nih.gov\/programs\/\">https:\/\/www.nimhd.nih.gov\/programs\/<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Funding Opportunities\u00a0\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.nimhd.nih.gov\/funding\">https:\/\/www.nimhd.nih.gov\/funding<\/a>\/<\/p>\n<p><strong>NIH Links<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>News and Events\u00a0\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.nih.gov\/news-events\">https:\/\/www.nih.gov\/news-events\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n<p>News Releases\u00a0\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.nih.gov\/news-events\/news-releases\">https:\/\/www.nih.gov\/news-events\/news-releases<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp;
