Collaboratives

Meyers Research Collaboratives & Cores

Meyers Research organizes its faculty expertise into four distinct Collaborative domains. Within these domains, specialized Cores bridge the gap between scientific discovery and real-world application.

By leveraging a transdisciplinary, team-science approach, we move beyond traditional boundaries to promote health equity for all populations. Our methodology is uniquely grounded in nursing science, focusing on the dual goals of enhancing person-centered outcomes and driving broad-scale systems improvement. We don't just study health challenges; we build the evidence-based solutions required to solve them at the population level.
