We embody the Michigan Difference. In the Health System, that is demonstrated through:

The Best People.
Leaders in their fields, their dedication, skill and compassion are improving lives today, while their innovations, inspired ideas and intellectual drive are paving the way to better treatments — and cures — tomorrow.

Groundbreaking Research.
We are among the country's top institutions in federally funded research. We are prominent in the pursuit of discovery, in the translation of pioneering breakthroughs to the clinical and business settings, and in the dissemination of new knowledge to health care providers and the public at large.

A Rich Environment.
As part of the world-renowned University of Michigan, we are home to top-ranked schools in Law, Business, Public Health, Nursing, Medicine, Dentistry, Social Work and Pharmacy as well as a premier Hospitals and Health Centers organization. All are a quick walk or bike ride from each other, so natural alliances and partnerships easily occur in this setting.
