Discovering treatments and cures. That’s the goal of our health science researchers.

In doing so, the University of Minnesota remains a leader in providing next-generation quality care. Our research also serves as an economic engine that drives Minnesota’s health industry.

Whether it’s creating a beating heart in a lab or developing therapies to treat cancer patients, we are at the forefront of basic and clinical research. 


We are leaders in diabetes, brain sciences, cardiovascular disease, cancer, and infectious disease research.

We develop new health technologies. And we collaborate with Minnesota’s biomedical companies to bring these technologies to clinics and hospitals worldwide. 



We are driven to discover.
