Northwestern University Transplant Outcomes Research Collaborative Details
Northwestern University Transplant Outcomes Research Collaborative (NUTORC) builds upon the existing strengths of the transplant program at Northwestern and has created highly productive inter-school, multi-departmental, and trans-disciplinary collaborative initiatives. Some of our collaborators include Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine, Institute for Public Health and Medicine, McCormick School of Engineering, Kellogg School of Management, Department of Preventive Medicine, Department of Medical Social Sciences, Chicago Transplant Ethics Consortium, and the Northwestern Enterprise Data Warehouse (EDW). We bring together clinicians, health services and outcomes researchers and investigators with specific expertise in state-of-the art research methodologies to address pertinent questions in transplantation. Established in late 2008, these initiatives have already led to collaborative grant funding through NIH (National Institute of Health), AHRQ (Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality), NSF (National Science Foundation) and HRSA (Health Resources and Services Administration), PCORI (Patient-Centered Outcomes Research Institute), in addition to other funding sources. To date, NUTORC has published over 550 peer-reviewed manuscripts as a result of collaborative work. We invite you to join us on this exciting path of collaborative work through NUTORC and our mission to define a new era in transplant outcomes research.
