Many past milestones and the exciting future that lies ahead will be recognized as the Clinical Center marks its fiftieth anniversary during special activities planned throughout the year. A simultaneous commitment to excellence in clinical research, patient care and management lies at the heart of how the Clinical Center conducts business. This dedication reflects and expands upon the vision of the Clinical Center's founders. This publication profiles the work carried out by the NIH Clinical Center.
