老澳门六合彩图库 Institute for Health & Equity Research

Finding Answers. Changing Lives.

The Institute for Health & Equity is dedicated to searching for patterns, anomalies, root causes and better ways to improve the health of the communities we serve. We are experts at identifying health disparities and then finding ways to level the playing field for those who have been left behind. The root causes of health disparities in major diseases like cancer or diabetes may be environmental, geographic, socioeconomic, demographic, behavioral or cultural in nature. Or, sometimes it鈥檚 a combination of several factors.聽

Our work is defined by first identifying the problem, then working with our community health partners to develop the most effective means of improving access to care, enhancing health education, changing government or health system policies and enabling behavior changes. Our partners rely on us to provide the data, statistical analysis, creativity, collaboration and vision required to reduce violence, find more effective treatments for rare diseases and ensure everything we do for patients is ethically sound.

Our research is ever-evolving as we strive to make an impact on the most pressing population health challenges of our time.
