The Borden Institute, an agency of the U.S. Army Medical Department Center & School, is located on the Walter Reed Army Medical Center campus in Delano Hall, Bldg 11. There is also a satellite office at Fort Sam Houston, Texas. The Borden mission is to publish the Textbooks of Military Medicine, a series of medical books covering the spectrum of applied biomedicine, including the ballistics of wounding; medical aspects of chemical, biological, and nuclear warfare and terrorism; war psychiatry; deployed critical care and anesthesiology; occupational and physical rehabilitation; human physiology in harsh environments; preventive medicine; and unique aspects of healthcare for recruits.

Borden also publishes specialty titles, such as War Surgery in Afghanistan and Iraq, A Series of Cases, 2003-2007; the Military Advanced Regional Anesthesia and Analgesia (MARAA) Handbook; the Emergency War Surgery handbook; Urology in Vietnam; and more recent historical works including the WRAMC Centennial Pictorial History and History of the US Army Dental Corps. In addition to print versions, most textbooks and specialty books are available in PDF, fully searchable, on the Institute's Web site, www.bordeninstitute.army.mil.

Founded for the purpose of documenting and publicizing advances in military medicine, Borden continues to cover timely medical issues and emerging treatments from lessons learned in the current conflicts, with forthcoming projects on topics such as care of the amputee and behavioral health in combat.
