About Us
Our faculty includes nationally recognized investigators who conduct cutting edge research in core domains of Health Systems Science, including:
- Quality improvement

- Population and community health value-based care and evidence-based practice
- Professionalism and ethics
- Interprofessional care

Many of our investigators are health care providers, who see first-hand how systems affect providers, patients, and their interactions. Their clinical work inspires and informs their research, and their research inspires and informs their care. They partner with our PhD investigators, sharing their clinical expertise, and gaining content, methodological and analytic expertise through collaboration. Our faculty contributes to the education and training of UMass Chan Medical School students, residents, fellows and faculty members in HSS.
We are closely affiliated with UMass Memorial Health (UMMH), the Program in Digital Medicine, the Center for Digital Health Solutions, and the Department of Medicine Clinical Research Core.
