Dedicated to bringing positive world-changing research to fruition; faculty, staff, and students at SONHS incorporate state-of-the-art facilities with interdisciplinary, evidence-based science. As one of the three pillars of the strategic plan for the School, Mission Driven Research represents the fulcrum that balances the other two pillars. Research is at the very heart of education that extends well beyond the rigors of an undergraduate or graduate degree, and its impact on the community outside the bounds of the University of Miami campus embraces the leadership role in our hemisphere and beyond.
The areas of research that encompass the current missions at SONHS represent some of the most important challenges facing the world today. From Patient Safety and Outcomes to Disaster Preparedness, Vulnerable Populations to Global Health, Family Caregiving to Health Disparities, we are dedicated to improving delivery of care to patients and communities as well as influencing health systems and health policy. To that end, this section of the website contains information about what each research mission entails, why SONHS finds each of these areas important to study, and what we are doing to make a difference. Here you will find research studies, publications, presentations, and profiles of our faculty experts who bring their innovation and excellence to advancing these priorities.
SONHS is dedicated to enabling researchers through its Research Support Services and Resources. Physical facilities such as the cutting-edge Simulation Hospital, practical resources such as the Measures Library and Grant Writing and Application Support, as well as a myriad of other services contribute to the success of investigators locally, nationally, and internationally. This section of the website also details opportunities that expose and engage students in current and ongoing SONHS research projects.
