Founded in 1986, International Institute for the Advancement of Medicine (IIAM) is one of the largest recovery networks in the world for the acquisition of donated human tissues for research and education. Based in Phoenix, Ariz., it works with organ procurement organizations, tissue banks, hospitals, hospice programs, funeral directors, medical examiners and individual donors throughout the United States. The organization has two divisions, including the organ division that receives referrals of non-transplantable organs for research from organ donors for transplantation, and the anatomical division that recovers specimens for research from post-mortem/whole body donors. IIAM is a division of the Musculoskeletal Transplant Foundation (MTF) and is licensed and inspected by the New York State Department of Health.
