The Department of Obstetrics, Gynecology and Reproductive Medicine recognizes the importance of research by our faculty members, residents and students. One of our core values, as part of the academic mission of the department, is to establish an atmosphere of respect and excitement for research. Our commitment to multidisciplinary team-based women’s healthcare is a key component of our efforts to create and expand knowledge and improve the quality of our patients’ lives through excellent basic, translational, and clinical research.

The Department’s mission to foster clinical investigation and translational research amongst the faculty is supported by an established and rapidly growing Division of Research. Our commitment to multidisciplinary team-based women’s healthcare is a key component of our efforts to create and expand knowledge and improve the quality of our patients’ lives through excellent basic, translational, and clinical research.

Center for Healthy Aging

The Center for Healthy Aging

The CHA will work collaboratively with all the Health Sciences Schools and the Program in Public Health to develop and evaluate clinical and community programs that will be the basis for developing Interprofessional Education and interdisciplinary research projects. One area for collaboration is with the School of Social Welfare, which has done the groundwork for establishing a Center for Aging in Place in Suburbia that would convene residents, businesses, nonprofit organizations, service providers, researchers and local government with the goal of assisting older adults and their caregivers on Long Island to remain living in the community from retirement to end of life.
