NIH Revitalization Act of 1993
The NIH Revitalization Act of 1993 is a law that aimed to improve medical research by ensuring women and minorities are adequately represented in clinical studies conducted or supported by the National Institutes of Health (NIH). This helps ensure that research findings are applicable to diverse populations and reduces health disparities. The Act also established guidelines for including women and minorities in research and promoted the development of research on health issues specific to these groups, ultimately fostering more inclusive, accurate, and comprehensive scientific knowledge.
