The Ohio State University Medical Center has seen dramatic growth in its research programs in recent years, both in funding and in impact. Faculty at Ohio State today hold more than $185 million in external research funding, all focused on finding the causes of disease and injury, their progression, optimum treatment and – wherever possible – their prevention.
Our research expansion can be seen in the significant translational research programs underway in our major interdisciplinary centers, in individual schools and departments, and in the growing array of core facilities that support them. Our many innovative partnerships – with other ventures, industry, foundations and international research institutions – help advance the understanding of disease at the most basic level and yield new techniques and technologies to treat disease and injury.
