TheBorden Institute is a U.S. Army “Center of Excellence in Military Medical Research and Education”.

In 1987, U.S. Army Colonel Russ Zajtchuk conceived the idea for a “Center of Excellence in Military Medical Research and Education,” under the Army'sOffice of The Surgeon General (OTSG). The center was soon made a reality, largely through the efforts of Zajtchuk, Dr. Don Jenkins, and Colonel Ron Bellamy. In 1992, to honor Lieutenant ColonelWilliam Cline Borden (MajorWalter Reed’s personal physician and conceiver of the originalWalter Reed General Hospital) the center’s name was changed to Borden Institute. The institute was located at Delano Hall on the campus ofWalter Reed Army Medical Center (WRAMC), inWashington, D.C. After WRAMC's closure, the institute moved toFort Sam Houston.

To date, the Borden Institute has published nearly 20 volumes of theTextbook of Military Medicine (TMM) series. These comprehensive reference books on the art and science of military medicine are extensively illustrated and written in an easy-to-follow narrative. The TMM series is designed to illustrate how military medicine has built on the lessons learned in past wars, and to lay out the scientific basis on which the practice of military medicine is grounded. On June 3, 2019, Borden Institute released “Military Veterinary Services” as a part of the Textbooks of Military Medicine series.^[1]
