Fiscal Year 2023
Our faculty, students, and professional staff are involved in public health research aimed at advancing knowledge about risk and protective factors (at personal, environmental, and societal levels) that inform policy and interventions to improve population health.
Whether you are an experienced independent investigator, an early-career faculty, or a student, we believe you belong here, you can contribute, and you can become part of the growing public health research community.
During Fiscal Year 2023, our faculty received 71 extramural awards from a diverse pool of funding agencies. Projects led by our faculty received $31.7 million in funding from federal, state, and private sources to tackle tough issues such as cancer, opioid use disorder, environmental risks, injuries, and health disparities in communities throughout the Commonwealth of Kentucky and across our nation. This research has translated into more than 300 peer review publications during FY 2023.
Our researchers are team scientists collaborating with researchers from other colleges and disciplines within the university as well as nationally and internationally. We provide the necessary research support and resources and can be reached by email at cphresearch@uky.edu.
