A Quick Word

"By leveraging the knowledge of many, we will be able to harness innovation while keeping in sight a holistic and humanistic view of our patients and their families to assure equitable care across all our communities."

We spoke to a lot of people, both within the University at Buffalo and the wider healthcare innovation community, about new drug discoveries, changes in the way we care for patients, and how basic science research is going to influence the brain and mental health. The Future of Health report is evidence of the cutting-edge work that makes the Jacobs School one of the nation’s top public research institutions. We are thinking about the future in new and creative ways and harnessing those novel approaches to dismantle systemic barriers to achieving health equity. We are reimagining the future through team science, bringing together basic science researchers and doctors to translate discoveries into community impact.
