Our Approach
The Institute prioritizes research conducted in real-world behavioral health settings, working alongside community partners to ensure that findings are relevant, scalable, and responsive to the needs of diverse populations. This approach bridges the gap between academic research and practical implementation across healthcare and community systems.
Featured Research
The All of Us Research Program at CHS
Western University of Health Sciences has a data use and registration agreement in place with the National Institutes of Health (NIH) All of Us Research Program to ensure data security and integrity. WesternU faculty, students, researchers, and postdoctoral fellows can leverage this one-of-a-kind dataset to improve understanding of health and disease, identify opportunities to reduce disparities, and enable more precise approaches to care.
