Welcome to Research at MU's School of Medicine
MU is devoted to developing one of the nation's most outstanding biomedical, clinical and translational science programs,
in both the educational and research arenas. We are dedicated to translating the exceptional life science discoveries that are
occuring across the MU campus into community-based products, services and practices for our state and nation.
Few universities share MU’s potential for saving lives through research. We have more than 1,000 life scientists — all on one campus —
who are united in improving health by studying humans, animals, plants and the environment. Their efforts focus on the deadliest diseases,
such as cancer and cardiovascular disease, and the most vulnerable patients, including children and the elderly.
