Bethesda
NIH headquarters city
Bethesda is a wealthy suburb of Washington, D.C., in Maryland, known for its affluent residents and proximity to federal institutions including the National Institutes of Health and Walter Reed National Military Medical Center.
The name comes from a biblical healing pool.
Bethesda Softworks, the video game company behind *The Elder Scrolls* and *Fallout* series, is also headquartered there, making "Bethesda" shorthand among gamers for the studio itself: Bethesda just announced a new title.
