Center for Research and Health Analytics

We're taking knowledge gained through research as far as we possibly can. Because lives depend on it.

The Ohio State University College of Nursing understands the essential role research plays in improving the quality of healthcare and population outcomes, that’s why research is one of our top priorities. Our objective is clear. This Center exists to provide the comprehensive support required to advance all research activity within the College of Nursing. Our resources are available to both faculty and students and our work is multi-dimensional — from assistance with all aspects of grant writing to facilitating collaborative ventures with healthcare-related business and industry. In addition, the Center is home to two wet laboratories available for use by university faculty across all colleges.

Our mission

The mission of the Center for Research and Health Analytics is to provide centralized grant and research services and to streamline grant submissions, IRB applications, grant management, and facilitate research projects across the College of Nursing.
