Delving into the origins of disease

Understanding how and why diseases form is the foundation of finding treatments and cures for them. The Johns Hopkins All Children‘s Institute for Fundamental Biomedical Research uses basic science to discover what leads to the development of diseases and those discoveries inspire further research to not just treat but to prevent diseases in the future.

The institute, led by Director Timothy Osborne, Ph.D., acts as a hub, collaborating with researchers across all Johns Hopkins All Children’s institutes and departments and with colleagues on Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine campuses in Baltimore, Maryland.
