[[File:US-NLM-NCBI-Logo.svg|140px|thumb|National Center for Biotechnology Information logo]] The '''National Center for Biotechnology Information''' ('''NCBI''') is part of the [[United States National Library of Medicine]] (NLM), a branch of the [[National Institutes of Health]]. The NCBI is located in [[Bethesda, Maryland]] and was founded in 1988 through legislation sponsored by Senator [[Claude Pepper]].

The NCBI houses a series of databases relevant to [[biotechnology]] and biomedicine. Major databases include [[GenBank]] for DNA sequences and [[PubMed]], a bibliographic database for the biomedical literature. Other databases include the [[NCBI Epigenomics]] database. All these databases are available online through the [[Entrez]] search engine.

NCBI is directed by [[David Lipman]], one of the original authors of the [[BLAST]] sequence alignment program and a widely respected figure in [[bioinformatics]]. He also leads an intramural research program, including groups led by [[Stephen Altschul]] (another [[BLAST]] co-author), David Landsman, [[Eugene Koonin]] (a prolific author on [[comparative genomics]]), John Wilbur, Teresa Przytycka, and Zhiyong Lu.
