Research Excellence
UCSD is a world leader in scientific and medical research and is ranked 7th in the nation in federal R&D expenditures by the National Science Foundation. UCSD’s total research funding for 2004-05 was $728.3 million. In fact, the Institute for Scientific Information ranks UCSD 2nd in the nation for the most cited clinical medicine research papers and 5th for the highest impact research institution in the nation from 1995-2005. Newsweek named UCSD the “hottest” institution in the nation for students to study science.
As a leader in research, UCSD is home to prominent research investigators who serve as both research mentors and clinical educators for our residents. Here is a selection of recent publications by our residents.
One of our Department’s highlights is a strong academic program with readily-available opportunities and support to do clinical or bench research. The teaching clinical faculty are exceptional, and truly care about resident education and quality of life.
