**NIH Radio** is a 24-hour audio news service designed to provide broadcast radio stations and networks, as well as podcasters and the public with the latest information about NIH research findings, highlights of press conferences, and health campaigns.  **NIH Radio** has three distinct audio programs, each with different formats and styles for various audiences and uses.  They are available in script and MP3 audio format online, and can be heard via telephone.

### “NIH Research Radio” Podcasts

Listen to “NIH Research Radio” Podcasts online				or 			dial 301-276-3384 and press 3 for the most recent podcast.

Posted on our site and on iTunes every other Friday, each "NIH Research Radio" podcast contains a news summary, two or three audio reports, plus an extra, in-depth interview. Each episode is designed for a general audience and is exactly 25 minutes long, making it “broadcast ready” for radio or streaming.

### NIH Audio Reports

Listen to NIH Audio Reports online			or  dial 301-276-3384 and press 2 for the latest Audio Report.

NIH audio reports are short-form, news stories posted roughly twice a week. Each report is usually based on a current press release and typically contains a selection of soundbites from NIH experts. They are one to four minutes long and health-related. They can be broadcast as is, or can be used as source material for journalistic purposes.

### NIH “Health Matters” 60-Second Spots

Listen to this month’s series of NIH “Health Matters”			or dial 301-276-3384 and press 1 for today’s feature. 

Once a month a series of generic, consumer-oriented stories are posted; one 60-seccond feature, complete with expert soundbite, for every weekday of the month.  Each report is "broadcast ready" for radio outlets across the country to use in their local news and information programming.  The NIH Radio phone line is updated each weekday with a current “Health Matters” feature.

**NIH Radio** is a reliable, trusted radio news service that produces hundreds of audio reports, has been posting podcasts since 2006, has distributed broadcast edits to thousands of radio outlets and has an estimated audience of more than 78 million listeners per year.
