Health Sciences

Across the University of Minnesota’s health sciences, we’re making discoveries that transform.

We develop new health technologies and treatment approaches. We stop emerging infectious diseases in their tracks. We shape health policy and engineer solutions to some of the most complex health problems impacting the world beyond our borders.

In fact, many of the treatments, medications, and diagnostic tools used in hospitals today were developed here.

As we collaborate with biomedical companies to bring these technologies to patients faster, our research serves as an economic engine driving Minnesota’s entire health care industry.

In short, our health sciences researchers are driven to discover. And now we invite you to discover just where that drive is taking us.
