Research
University of Wisconsin School of Medicine and Public Health has the largest research commitment of any school or college on the UW-Madison campus, receiving more than $240 million in research support in fiscal 2004. Approximately 1,200 faculty members work in 25 departments and 18 centers and institutes, and have active research programs covering virtually every aspect of basic or clinical biomedical research. Internationally recognized centers include the UW Paul P. Carbone Comprehensive Cancer Center and its associated McArdle Research Laboratory, former home of the late Howard Temin, the 1975 co-winner of the Nobel Prize in Medicine for his discovery of reverse transcriptase.
The UW School of Medicine and Public Health's Office of Research and Graduate Studies assists faculty in all phases of research administration. The staff provides information on funding opportunities (SPIN, IREX, IRIS), assists with proposal preparation, and reviews and approves all research proposals originating within the school. In addition, material transfer agreements and confidentiality agreements are reviewed by this office. Other support services managed by this office include clinical trials administration, the investigational review board for human subjects research, creation of media products to enhance research and education, animal care facilities, and technology transfer activities.
