For many years, the Institute of Medicine, as part of the National Academies, has produced reports on the health and protection of deployed military forces and veterans. These reports build on the Academy's long history of addressing scientific and medical issues related to past and current military conflicts. This site provides information about the Institute of Medicine's work in this area, including summaries and recommendations from past reports, as well as explanations of chemical and biological agents, and links to ongoing projects. Projects described on this website examine and assess scientific evidence. They do not discuss compensation for health outcomes, which is solely the responsibility of the Department of Veterans Affairs.
