As an institute of the National Institutes of Health (NIH), NLM will bring its research focus in information science, informatics, and data science to meet the challenges of this rapidly changing biomedical space. The NLM Strategic Plan envisions NLM as a platform for biomedical discovery and data-powered health, integrating streams of complex and interconnected research outputs that can be readily translated into scientific insights, clinical care, public health practices, and personal wellness.

By increasing the speed at which information is organized, disseminated, and accessed, NLM will accelerate the speed and precision of discovery.
