Transforming Medicine and Health Through Scientific Research

The Duke University School of Medicine strives to transform medicine and health, locally and globally, through innovative scientific research and rapid translation of breakthrough discoveries.

This research extends from the bench to the bedside -- from the basics of biology to the best practices in caring for the wide range of human diseases.
