Our Pillars of Excellence in Biomedical and Health Sciences Research

The Pillars of Excellence align GUMC’s institutional strengths in areas including cancer, global health, and brain health with areas of greatest need and opportunity, building on the foundational work of education, research and care for the community. All of these activities are grounded in a dedication to the Catholic, Jesuit principles of public service (“people in service to others”) and cura personalis, or “care of the whole person.”
