On Feb. 27, staff from the NIH Clinical Center and Research Facilities attended a special "Topping Out" event on the ground floor, marking the completion of the top floor of the Surgery, Radiology, and Laboratory Medicine (SRLM) wing. Hosted by the construction company Hensel Phelps, the event celebrated the hard work and collaboration of all teams involved in this transformative project. The SRLM wing construction, which will continue until 2029, aims to modernize hospital facilities and ensure that the Clinical Center remains a leader in high-quality patient care and cutting-edge biomedical research.

Located on the NIH campus in Bethesda, Md., we serve as a hub where volunteer patients and NIH scientists collaborate to advance medical innovations. More than half a million patients from all 50 states and around the globe have participated in our clinical research programs. Patients at the Clinical Center participate in research studies at no cost. We currently have around 1,500 studies underway, focusing on cancer, infectious diseases, heart and lung conditions, blood disorders, among others. Our bench-to-bedside approach brings research labs and patient care units together, fostering collaboration and rapid translation of scientific discoveries into treatments that save lives. We also provide world-class clinical research training for healthcare professionals and attract top scientists from around the globe. With 200 inpatient beds, 11 operating rooms, 93 day-hospital stations, and a wide range of diagnostic services, we are equipped for comprehensive patient care and cutting-edge research. Our scientific breakthroughs include chemotherapy for solid tumors, nitroglycerin for heart attacks, identifying a genetic component in schizophrenia, the first successful mitral valve replacement in a human heart, and blood tests for AIDS and hepatitis - many of which are now global standards in medical care.

We're not just a hospital. Or a research center. We're something more. The NIH Clinical Center has been in the business of understanding, diagnosing and treating illnesses since it opened its doors in 1953. We focus on innovations that help millions but also help understand rare diseases. All of this work, in partnership with our patients, helps us understand diseases and illnesses and search for solutions that can improve health for all Americans. https://lnkd.in/ec_aJXK3

It’s normal to lose muscular strength as we age, but numerous diseases cause similar consequences in relatively young people. Yonathan Assefa,?an NIH Clinical Center postbaccalaureate research fellow in the Intramural Research Program at the National Institutes of Health, is using a technology called ultrasound to look at the muscles and nerves in people with one of those illnesses. The information gleaned from his research could help scientists more quickly and accurately evaluate the effectiveness of new treatments for these conditions.? https://lnkd.in/e2Q9dBGA

Can AI answer clinical questions from medical images? Medical Visual Question Answering is an approach that seeks to harness AI to answer clinically relevant questions regarding input medical images. Researchers say they used large language models to create a large-scale, clinically driven medical Visual Question-answering dataset named Medical-CXR-VQA. Building on their previous work, the team improved the dataset construction accuracy by 62%.Read the Research: https://lnkd.in/eKMvXcqE #AIinMedicine #MedicalImaging #Innovation
