Office for Research

Comprehensive Support for Researchers

It is our mission to initiate, catalyze, and multiply research strategy across the medical school, supporting basic, clinical, and translational research. By facilitating research synergies across the University of Virginia (UVA), we are dedicated to empowering researchers with the resources, guidance, and support needed to drive innovation and advance medical science.

The School of Medicine  serves as the backbone for UVA Health, acting as a catalyst for clinical excellence, innovative research, and education of the next generation of health care providers. Learn about our vision for the future in our most recent annual report.
