First organization selected is the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) and, the other is BUPA health care.

The various sectors that are associated with these groups include diagnostics, biotechnology, drug manufacturers and hospitals. National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) is specialized in the research on brain, mind and, behavior to deal with mental illness. From the past years, there has been an immense increase in mental disorders in United States, which has led to disability issues. Obsessive compulsive disorder, schizophrenia and, bipolar disorder are the main causes of this disability. NIMH also deals with research on the impact of HIV transmission and its prevention.
