The National Library of Medicine (NLM) is a leader in biomedical informatics and computational health data science research, and the world’s largest biomedical library. We lead innovation in the development of advanced tools for clinical data interpretation and decision-making through our cutting-edge research, training programs, and information services. We are distinctive within the National Institutes of Health (NIH) because of our substantial investment in sustainable biomedical information systems that make scientific literature, genomic, clinical, and other types of biomedical data readily available to those who need it. NLM plays a vital role in biomedical discovery and the translation of biomedical research into practice. We build and employ powerful, sophisticated tools to collect, organize, search, and disseminate data that enable innovation to power new kinds of discovery. We are a library for the world, and our work forms the backbone of scientific communication. We make information and knowledge flow—ensuring that scientists, policymakers, clinicians, patients, and the public have access to biomedical information 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

NIH researchers have developed an AI agent powered by a large language model that creates more accurate and informative descriptions of biological processes and their functions in gene set analysis than current systems. The AI agent can help researchers interpret high-throughput molecular data and identify relevant biological pathways or functional modules, which can lead to a better understanding of how different diseases and conditions affect groups of genes individually and together.

A project funded by the NLM Extramural Program aims to reimagine how patient interactions are documented by using artificial intelligence to provide real-time feedback during doctor visits and generate summaries automatically. https://loom.ly/ABjQLkQ #AI
Researchers funded by the NLM Extramural Program are studying what makes language accessible and developing guidelines for creating effective audio-based resources. This work can help patients improve their health literacy and empower them to make informed decisions about their health. https://loom.ly/pikYARg #AI
Learn more about Antonia C. Novello, who was a vice admiral in the Public Health Service Commissioned Corps and served as 14th Surgeon General of the United States from 1990 to 1993. Dr. Novello's papers are now available in NLM Digital Collections. https://loom.ly/LPsvAlk
The National Cancer Institute (NCI) supports research to find and treat pancreatic cancer faster and better. See what scientists have recently been up to in NIH MedlinePlus Magazine! https://loom.ly/CHy_wIc
Dr. Lauren Porter, an investigator at NLM's Division of Intramural Research, studies proteins that can change structure and function in response to changes in the cell, She uses examples of fold-switching to improve AlphaFold, an AI method for protein structure prediction. This work can help researchers to understand why fold-switching happens, use those principles to develop better therapies for diseases, and discover more about how proteins work. https://loom.ly/kmEzQXA
Today's Circulating Now blog post features a virtual tour of the NLM historical collection focusing on the history of women's health. It documents how women have experienced health and illness, practiced medicine, and advocated for their health and the health of their families.
