Working together to advance medicine and quality of care.
University of Vermont Health is home to University of Vermont Medical Center, one of 138 academic medical centers in the country that provide patient care and educate future health care providers. As an academic health system, we are able to provide leading-edge care, informed by research and clinical trials, to patients throughout our region.
The foundation of these efforts lies in our longstanding alliance with the Larner College of Medicine and the College of Nursing and Health Sciences at University of Vermont. A top-100 public research university, University of Vermont awards more than $250 million in research funding each year, including up to $100 million toward clinical research.
