Research

We strive to conduct research that results in disruptive, meaningful change for health and health care delivery.

With a robust network of dedicated faculty, students and postdoctoral scholars, the VCU Department of Health Policy is proud to conduct innovative research that identifies and addresses the behavioral, social, organizational, and policy factors that affect the health of individuals and populations.

Through quantitative and qualitative methods, community engagement, economic evaluations, and policy analysis, we aim to contribute to systemic changes that promote health and improve health care delivery. The department’s diverse portfolio is a reflection of this team, and our multidisciplinary research environment fosters curiosity and collaboration across a broad spectrum of areas of interest.
