The National Institutes of Health (NIH) is the Nation's main medical research agency. Funded by U.S. tax dollars, the NIH supports researchers throughout the country and
around the world as they work to improve people's health.
The NIH recognizes the importance of keeping the American people informed about how their tax dollars are spent to support medical research. In 2009, the NIH will unveil
the Research, Condition, and Disease Categorization (RCDC) system. RCDC will provide consistent and transparent information to the public about
NIH research. With this new computer-based tool, the public will see NIH's research activities broken down into nearly 360 categories each fiscal year. The categories cover
research areas, diseases, and conditions. The new system will produce a complete list of all NIH-funded projects related to each category.
