Our trajectory remains strong, especially when considering:
- This is our 3rd year in a row in the top 25.
- Our increase in NIH research funding is greater than the overall NIH funding increase itself and again makes up about 78% of the University's total NIH funding
These rankings are a measurement but the real impact is in the improvements in medicine and care delivery. That is what keeps us always working toward the next treatment, cure, or care model.
