Research

The UTHSC-H research enterprise continues to gain momentum in fulfilling our mission to become a leading research institution in North America. The statistics support this ideal, as shown in charts representing our research expenditure, National Institutes of Health awards, and the number of journal publications UTHSC-H faculty have authored. UTHSC-H’s research expenditures have grown every year over the past 10 years, an overall increase of 112.5 percent. Our NIH award recipient ranking nationally for 2002 was 53rd of 515 higher education institutions that receive NIH funding.

Our reputation precedes us; UTHSC-H is home to an extensive range of experts in scientific discovery. Much research is pursued in collaboration with other faculty members in the UTHSC-H Health Science Center, across the Texas Medical Center and at other national and international institutions searching to solve the health care problems around the globe.
