The Institute of Naval Medicine (INM) is the Royal Navy’s centre of excellence for occupational health advice, information, training and research.

The INM’s mission is to optimise the operational capability of the Royal Navy and UK Defence by the provision of robust medical and scientific outputs. Its aim is to excel in achieving that mission and to maintain and enhance its standing as a world class centre in occupational health, particularly in problems associated with work and operations in maritime and climatically hostile environments.
