Message from the Vice Dean

The University of Kentucky College of Medicine is a dynamic research powerhouse, and it is my absolute privilege to collaborate with the faculty, staff, and trainees across the college in their transformative research endeavors. Our seven basic science departments, 18 clinical departments, and multiple centers are addressing critical questions in biomedicine, including in signature areas such as drug addiction and abuse, diabetes and obesity, cancer, cardiovascular, and neuroscience, and in emerging areas like infectious disease and lung disease.

The College of Medicine Office of Research provides a wide variety of resources to facilitate this important work, including our highly impactful Alliance Research Initiative program, which is powering innovative transdisciplinary research across the college and beyond. I am so proud of our people and our research.
