Our primary mission is to conduct innovative research that presents novel prevention and intervention strategies to combat a broad range of health challenges such as obesity, substance abuse and cancer.
By leveraging expertise from interdisciplinary scientists across six academic units and input from the community, we apply scientific capabilities and determine solutions to address the health needs of Houston, the state of Texas and beyond.
Through active partnerships with our community advisory boards, stakeholders, elected officials and community members, we are uniquely positioned to tackle health challenges through multi-site cooperative trials, and other health initiatives.
