The name has changed, but the mission is the same. University of Utah Health Research Office (formerly known the Office of the Associate Vice President for Research, Health Sciences and Senior Vice President for Health Sciences Research Unit) is the engine that powers health sciences research. We provide essential core services, reimagine research education, secure philanthropic support, and everything in between.
Led by Rachel Hess, MD, MS, the inaugural System Chief Research Officer for University of Utah Health (previously the Associate Vice President for Research, Health Sciences), this talented team strategizes and drives operations that advance research, researchers, and the research community. Why all the name changes? They align with the ambitious Vision 2030 of Bob Carter, MD, PhD, Executive Vice President for Health Sciences and U of U Health CEO.
