The O’Neill Institute for National and Global
Health Law at Georgetown University, a joint project of the Law
Center and School of Nursing and Health Studies, has the mission to
provide innovative solutions for the leading health problems in
America and globally – from infectious and chronic diseases to health
care financing and health systems. The O’Neill Institute draws upon
the University’s considerable intellectual resources, including the School of Medicine, the Public Policy
Institute, and the Kennedy Institute of Ethics. Located in Washington, DC, the O’Neill Institute is
emerging as a major center where legislators and government officials
seek scientific data and legal perspectives on legislation, policy
