Our research in the Department of Emergency Medicine is driven by a commitment to addressing the most pressing challenges faced by our immediate community.

We have identified four broad areas of focus—Social Emergency Medicine/Health Equity, Digital Health/Bioinformatics, Quality Improvement, and key Clinical Domains—where our efforts are concentrated. These areas, which often overlap, represent the critical issues that require our sustained attention. While they encompass a wide range of projects, from hypertension and cardiac arrest to HIV, diabetes, and beyond, they also reflect our dedication to advancing emergency care, improving patient outcomes, and fostering innovation across the field.

Mission

To foster and advance funded clinical and translational research within the Department of Emergency Medicine, emphasizing scholarship, innovation, and collaboration among our faculty, staff, trainees, and nursing team.

Our vision is to be recognized as leaders in Emergency Medicine by building a research division of excellence with funded investigators, connected by a shared goal of advancing emergency care research, transforming patient care, and educating the next generation of clinician-scientists.

Core Concentrations

We have identified four key areas of focus where our immediate community faces significant challenges and where our research efforts are most urgently needed. These areas, which sometimes intersect, represent only a portion of the projects we undertake but demand our sustained attention:

  • Social Emergency Medicine/Health Equity
  • Digital Health/Bioinformatics
  • Quality Improvement
  • Clinical Domains: hypertension, cardiac arrest, HIV, diabetes, HCV, ultrasound, sickle cell, cancer, healthcare worker wellness, COVID-19, chest pain, substance use disorder, toxicology, and global emergency medicine.
