We know that great ideas can come from anywhere — from research discoveries, curious residents and even patients advocating for their health. At the Department of Medicine, we’re motivated to see the next big idea become someone’s life-changing innovation.
Over 90% of our research is funded by the federal government or foundations, with an especially keen interest in infectious diseases, rheumatology and renal care. This funding allows us to expand our understanding of conditions and diseases so we can offer our communities the best care possible.
