A systemwide collaborative grant program led by the UT Health Science Center College of Medicine in Knoxville is supporting research and scholarly activities to pursue discoveries addressing health issues across Tennessee and beyond.
The program will fund six awards totaling more than $450,000 to support teams of clinicians, faculty, and researchers from across the state to innovate in the field of medicine and biomedical research.
Robert Craft, MD, dean of the College of Medicine in Knoxville, expressed enthusiasm for the program and the awards. “The problems we face in medicine and the effective treatment of patients are complex and multifaceted,” he said. “By leveraging the strengths of each campus, we can achieve breakthroughs that would be impossible to accomplish in isolation. This funding represents our commitment to fostering biomedical and clinical innovation through collaboration.”
