RESEARCH RESEARCH

At CHA, being a teaching healthcare system goes beyond training future providers and doing research in a lab. Our clinics and every corner of our hospitals are teeming with research projects exploring the lives of the communities we serve and how we can improve them.

With over $7.5 million annual research expenditures and more than 60 active research grants, our clinician researchers address health disparities that directly impact the people we treat while having a regional and national impact on care, policy and advocacy.

Leading a national research center to increase early mental illness detection in schools and the community, prevent adverse outcomes, improve quality of care and foster equity in treatment for racial, ethnic and language (REL) –minority youth – and that’s just one of our grants.

How is climate change impacting the health equity of our patients, families and communities?
