Excerpt from National Institute of Arthritis and Musculoskeletal and Skin Diseases; Annual Reports, Intramural Research Programs: October 1, 1985 to September 30, 1986 Understanding such complex disorders so that they may eventually be controlled, effectively treated, and prevented is the goal of all studies conducted and supported by niams. It is an understanding that must begin at the cellular level, in basic research studies, and be extended by clinical investigations and, ultimately, where needed, by developmental research. The intramural research program of niams covers a wide range of these investigations. Administratively, it is a relatively young entity created when the niams became a new Institute within the framework of nih. Its achievements, productivity and traditions, however, have a long and positive history. Our intramural research staff is generally known as a highly productive and innovative group of scientists. This annual report represents a chronicle of the research efforts of the year just finished and describes the opportunities and plans for further research to come. The achievements described here reflect the development of new and promising knowledge which would not be possible without the original ideas and dedicated efforts of the talented investigators who participate in our fight against arthritis.
