Research
New technology allows faster, more accurate targeting of radiation against cancer cells.

Infectious disease expert Srilatha Edupuganti works with volunteers in clinical trials of an AIDS vaccine at Emory's Hope Clinic.
The Emory University School of Medicine (SOM) has had a remarkable research trajectory over the past 20 years, during which we have consistently been one of the fastest growing research institutions in terms of total NIH awards awarded to each of the nation’s 131 MD-granting accredited medical schools. In recent years we have lessened our reliance on financial metrics as surrogates of research excellence in favor of recognizing outstanding accomplishments. I invite you to explore our MilliPub Club and Gamechangers, to become familiar with the range of research core facilities and other resources supported by SOM, and to contact me with questions.
