Research Interest Groups

Research Interest Groups (RIGs) bring together departmental PhD and MD research and clinical faculty, as well as trainees across our campuses into synergized research groups. They provide a structure for PhD faculty akin to Clinical Sections for purposes of improving departmental visibility and connection. Each are typically led by a PhD Director and MD Co-Director, who collectively (with their SRG colleagues) form an Executive Research Council.
