Translating Science into Better Health for All
The UAB Minority Health & Health Disparities Research Center (MHRC) generates and disseminates research knowledge from biomedical, behavioral, and social sciences in order to reduce the health disparities experienced by vulnerable populations and disadvantaged communities locally, regionally, and nationally.The Center was established in 2002, and since then has maintained its status as a University-Wide Interdisciplinary Research Center, as well as a Center of Excellence (P60) funded by the National Institutes of Health.
The MHRC supports three programs - Research, Training, and Outreach - that align with the University’s broad strategic goals and make it an enabling platform for UAB’s research, teaching, and service missions.
