The National Health Museum will be a science-based institution with the mission of inspiring Americans to live healthier lives through access to knowledge and themed exhibits focused on the life sciences.  The physical museum, envisioned near Centennial Olympic Park in Atlanta, will be both educational and experiential.  It will deliver health-related content to millions of visitors, inspire America’s next generation of caregivers and life scientists, and help the nation remain at the forefront of health discovery, technology, practice and care.  The NHM CyberMuseum is being launched as a major online service prior to the museum’s construction.
