Department of Medicine Office of Research

The Department of Medicine places a strong emphasis on its broad and innovative research programs.

Department of Medicine researchers and clinicians work side-by-side to address fundamental problems in human disease. Their collaborative efforts enable them to take mechanistic discoveries to preclinical testing and first-in-man clinical trials. Cross-cutting programs include regenerative medicine, vaccine testing and development, immunology and inflammation, outcomes and health services research, and the molecular basis of disease.

Grant Cancellations

Recently many in our DOM community have received grant cancellation notices and dealt with the impact on their projects and personnel. As we navigate these very difficult times, we remain committed to research at Emory and would like to provide you with information as to the process to appeal these decisions. We thank you for your patience and we will continue to communicate as we learn more in this dynamic environment.

Ease of Research Initiative

Visit the new Ease of Research intranet page, which serves as a hub for progress updates on our ongoing collaborative initiatives aimed at overcoming identified micro-hurdles that were discovered in our recent survey. A full analysis of the survey may be found on that new intranet page.

As a part of the Ease of Research Initiative, a series of town halls are being held each month with a leader from a regulatory office critical to performing research at Emory. To learn more about these town halls, click HERE.
