Our Priorities
The University of Rochester Medical Center is home to 3,000 professionals who conduct research on everything from cancer and heart disease to Parkinson’s, pandemic flu, and autism. As our population ages, demand for healthcare has never been greater.
Collaborating across many centers, institutes, and labs, these scientists have developed therapies that have improved human health in the region and around the world. In our hospitals and clinics, our doctors, nurses, dentists, and other healthcare specialists are responsible for nearly three million patient visits each year. Learn more about our priorities.
