The namesake of A.T. Still University, Andrew Taylor Still, M.D., D.O., founded the Kirksville College of Osteopathic Medicine in 1892. KCOM was the first institution of osteopathic education in the world and continues to provide leadership for comprehensive medical education, research, and healthcare. Consistent with the college''s mission, KCOM is consistently ranked in U.S. News & World Report as one of the best medical schools in the country for rural and family medicine training. KCOM graduates represent a diverse group of osteopathic physicians practicing in every state and several other countries. They span all medical specialties and sub-specialties and comprise approximately a quarter of all practicing osteopathic physicians.

The main aim of Epidemiology at the Helmholtz Zentrum Munchen is to examine the role of environmental factors and genetic predisposition on human health by the use of epidemiological methods. Research is conducted in cooperation with the Institute of Medical Information Processing, Biometrics and Epidemiology at Ludwig Maximilians University of Munich. The institute is organized in five research units: * Environmental Epidemiology * Epidemiology of Air Pollution Health Effects * Epidemiology of Chronic Diseases * Genetic Epidemiology * Epidemiology Biological Samples Genomics The institute runs several cohort studies with adult, school children and new-born study populations, as well as time series analyses, case control studies and family studies. Another goal is to provide infrastructure for epidemiological research. As a resource for future studies a collection of serum, plasma, DNA and an archive of EBV immortalized B-Lymphocytes is being established. International co-operation and qualification of our members is highly emphasized in this institute, there are co-operations with about 70 scientific institutes and universities in Germany and abroad. We would like to point to the co-operation with the Harvard School of Public Health (MPH-training of institute members, exchange of scientists) and with the US-Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) in Chapel Hill. Two thirds of the personnel is financed through external grants, which are provided by state ministries, federal institutions, the European Union and grant giving institutions in the United States of America.

The aim of the Institute of Experimental Genetics (IEG) is to further the basic understanding of mechanisms that underlie the etiology of human diseases. Metabolic diseases with focus on diabetes and bone/cartilage disorders are the new key areas of research. Experimental set-ups are centered on the mouse as pre-clinical model organism. Besides studying the effects of genotypes, the institute has recently started to identify and characterize environmental factors and the mechanisms by which these act on the etiology of diseases. The systemic phenotyping of models and the exploration of envirotypes as a source of important disease factors are integral to the German Mouse Clinic (GMC).

http://www.pasteur.fr/fr

Institute that contributes to the prevention and treatment of infectious diseases through research, teaching and public health initiatives. The Institut Pasteur enjoys an independent status and has numerous other assets, with its research laboratories, technological platforms, teaching center and medical center all located on one campus in the heart of Paris. It also has an international network which currently counts 30 members spread over the five continents. With its unique setup and prestigious history, the Institut Pasteur has always stood at the forefront of innovation, adapting to the rapidly developing world of biological research and its applications, in particular in the field of biotechnology. Nowadays, the Institut Pasteur has four priorities to carry out its activities successfully : * to target its scientific strategy towards infectious diseases, microbiology, virology and immunology; * to adopt an outward-looking attitude, both within France, through agreements and collaborations with its partners : CNRS (French National Scientific Research Centre), Inserm (French National Institute for Health and Medical Research), universities, hospitals, industrial partners, etc., and at international level with the development of the Réseau International des Instituts Pasteur (International Network of the Institut Pasteur or RIIP), which counts 30 institutes; * to implement transversal research programs on ambitious themes and led by young researchers; * to preserve the foundation''s independence, in particular through increased resources from sponsorship and donations. These priorities, upholding the traditional tasks and values of the Institut Pasteur, place it at the cutting edge of the 21st century''s scientific and human challenges.

The National Center for Complementary and Alternative Medicine (NCCAM) is the Federal Government''s lead agency for scientific research on the diverse medical and health care systems, practices, and products that are not generally considered part of conventional medicine. The mission of NCCAM is to define, through rigorous scientific investigation, the usefulness and safety of complementary and alternative medicine interventions and their roles in improving health and health care. NCCAM sponsors and conducts research using scientific methods and advanced technologies to study CAM. CAM is defined simply as a group of diverse medical and health care interventions, practices, products, or disciplines that are not generally considered part of conventional medicine. NCCAM has four primary areas of focus: # Advancing scientific research: We fund research projects at scientific institutions across the United States and around the world. # Training CAM researchers: We support training for new researchers as well as encourage experienced researchers to study CAM. # Sharing news and information: We provide timely and accurate information about CAM research in many ways, such as through our Web site, Twitter, Facebook, and other social media tools, our information clearinghouse, fact sheets, Lecture Series, and continuing medical education programs. # Supporting integration of proven CAM therapies: Our research helps the public and health professionals understand which CAM therapies have been proven to be safe and effective. We are 1 of the 27 institutes and centers that make up the National Institutes of Health (NIH) within the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services.
