The Kinsey Institute

Kinsey Institute

The Kinsey Institute is located at Indiana University and serves as a trusted source for critical issues in sexuality, gender, and reproduction. Established in 1947 by Dr. Alfred Kinsey, the Institute for Sex Research (ISR) established two primary goals: to continue the team's research on human sexual behavior; and to administer research resources, including research materials, a library, case histories, and other related materials. In 1981, the ISR was renamed The Kinsey Institute for Sex Research.
