Narrator: This is NIH Health Matters. I’m Joe Balintfy. Over time, basic biomedical research paves the way for a wealth of medical advances.
Greenberg: Basic research is research that is not directly targeted to a particular disease or organ system or stage of life.
Narrator: Dr. Judith Greenberg, director of the NIH’s National Institute of General Medical Sciences says basic research looks at how cells and organisms work.
Greenberg: And understanding how they work is really a first step in understanding how we might treat diseases for example.
