    NIH recently debuted a plaque honoring the memory of the African American men unethically treated in the U.S. Public Health Service (USPHS) Untreated Syphilis Study and the 50th anniversary of the National Research Act at the National Library of Medicine (NLM) herb garden, across from Bldg. 38, on Sept. 19.

    "This plaque shines a light on the injustices of the past, not letting us forget them so they are never repeated," said NIH Director Dr. Monica Bertagnolli during the dedication ceremony. "NIH is committed to making biomedical research inclusive and accessible for everyone." read more: Event Honors NIH Partnership with Voices For Our Fathers Legacy Foundation
