SEPTEMBER 29, 2022 AZ Business Magazine
A groundbreaking research collaborative at Northern Arizona University received another $21 million grant to continue its work to promote health equity and study health disparities among diverse populations of the American Southwest.
The Center for Health Equity Research (CHER) received a $21 million, five-year grant from the National Institute on Minority Health and Health Disparities of the National Institutes of Health (NIH). It was initially funded in 2017 with a grant of the same size, at the time one of the largest grants in NAU’s history. This work is critical to Native nations as well as the missions of both NAU and NIH.
