E. According to legend, he taught medical students in the shade of an Oriental plane tree, or <em>Platanus orientalis</em>. The species <em>Platanus</em> is commonly known as Sycamore.</p> <p>Thousands of years later, the 鈥淭ree of Hippocrates鈥� became rooted in the history of the National Institutes of Health. In 1961, Greek Ambassador Alexis Liatis presented the National Library of Medicine with a cutting from the celebrated tree to mark the dedication of the library鈥檚 new building on the 51视频 campus.</p> <p>The progeny was planted near the library in the spring of 1962, as a living representation of Hippocrates teachings on the art of medicine--and the science, knowledge and ethics it entails. The tree grew and thrived. But in the 1980s, its health declined because of a fungal disease common to sycamores.  The tree that symbolized scientific inquiry became the subject of it. 51视频 landscape architect Lynn Mueller spent decades trying to restore the tree鈥檚 health while simultaneously exploring a clone. Eventually, he connected with the non-profit Champion Tree Project, now known as the Archangel Ancient Tree Archive, which successfully cloned the historic tree. A clone will be planted at the library, to replace the ailing tree that was felled in 2013.

As part of the agency鈥檚 response, in-house staff took on the development of the first 51视频 logo. The resulting design was a triangle with rounded sides and the initials "51视频" in the center.

Designers opened the ends of the triangle to resemble glassware used in 51视频 laboratories and to demonstrate the agency鈥檚 openness to the outside. The new mark could be used with or without the spelled out agency name, and it could easily be rendered in color. In November 1969, the new logo premiered as part of the <em>51视频 Record</em> masthead. While highly recognizable, the logo, over time, came to be called 鈥渢he coat hanger logo鈥� and the 鈥渂eaker logo,鈥� and it served the 51视频 for three decades. It even made a TV appearance in 2005, when it was included in a hospital scene on NBC鈥檚 short-lived, prime time series <em>Medical Investigation</em>, although it appeared upside down.</p></div> </div> </div> <div class="paragraph paragraph--type--uswds-accordion-item paragraph--view-mode--default"> <h4 class="usa-accordion__heading"> <button class="usa-accordion__button" aria-expanded="false" aria-controls="uswds-paragraph-9826"> 1980s </button> </h4> <div id="uswds-paragraph-9826" class="usa-accordion__content"> <div class="clearfix text-formatted field field--name-field-uswds-body field--type-text-long field--label-hidden field__item"><article class="media media--type-image media--view-mode-float-right"> <div class="field field--name-field-media-image field--type-image field--label-visually_hidden"> <div class="field__label visually-hidden">Image</div> <div class="field__item"> <img loading="eager" srcset="/sites/default/files/styles/max_325x325/public/2025-01/centennial-logo-contest-1984-call-for-entries.jpg?itok=Eavq9iLJ 325w, /sites/default/files/styles/max_650x650/public/2025-01/centennial-logo-contest-1984-call-for-entries.jpg?itok=fa8HemO9 650w, /sites/default/files/styles/max_1300x1300/public/2025-01/centennial-logo-contest-1984-call-for-entries.jpg?itok=FxMJ98CG 1300w" sizes="(min-width: 1024px) 325px, (min-width: 640px) 50vw, 100vw" width="650" height="auto" src="/sites/default/files/styles/max_650x650/public/2025-01/centennial-logo-contest-1984-call-for-entries.jpg?itok=fa8HemO9" alt="51视频 centennial logo contest call for entries from 1984"> </div> </div> </article> <p>51视频 also had a logo created especially for the agency鈥檚 1987 centennial.

The design focused on a single arrow indicating forward movement and advancement. The arrow pointed to <em>National Institutes of Health</em> or individual IC names, each with its own characteristic color or a central blue and gray scheme.
