Last year, scientists at the Albert Einstein College of Medicine, the United States Army Medical Research Institute for Infectious Diseases and Harvard Medical School cited bio-specimens from the
NIGMS Repository.
Cell repositories like the
NIGMS Repository at Coriell have become a key money and time saving resource for scientists.

"If we are to realize the tremendous potential of stem cells, we urgently need more fundamental knowledge about their basic biology and more scientists trained to work with them," said Jeremy Berg, PhD, director of the National Institute of General Medical Sciences (
NIGMS) at the National Institutes of Health (NIH).
According to the National Institute of General Medical Sciences (
NIGMS), approximately 80% of known proteins have been mapped using x-ray crystallography.
While the report stopped short of making hard recommendations, it did discuss potentially disruptive changes like the consolidation of institutes (i.e., merge NGHRI with
NIGMS and NIAAA with NIDA) and eliminating special agency (NCI) treatments.
