皇家华人 Emergency Medicine Research and Scholarship
The Department of Emergency Medicine maintains a wide range of active, multidisciplinary research programs led by faculty members conducting pioneering and highly impactful work. Our scholarly activities span the gamut of translational research (T0 to T4) to generate new knowledge that impacts clinical practice, health education, and healthcare delivery both locally and globally. Particular areas of departmental strength include clinical resuscitation research, substance abuse and injury-related epidemiological and intervention studies, community-based health education and disparities reduction programs, global emergency medicine education and ethics research, as well as research on diversity, equity and inclusion. Notably, our research programs have been extramurally funded by federal and foundational sponsors including National Institute of Health, U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration, The Advancing Healthier Wisconsin Partnership Program, State of Wisconsin Department of Corrections, Patient-Centered Outcomes Research Institute, National Association of County and City Health Officials, The Greenwall Foundation, among many others.
As our faculty possess diverse sets of methodological and topical expertise, as well as scholarly interests, we highly value collaboration and mentorship. As such, we provide many different formal and informal opportunities for medical students, residents, fellows to gain research skills. Moreover, we partner with researchers, policy makers, and other stakeholders in carrying out research that is innovative and impactful.
As our department grows so too do our areas of strength and scholarship. While a number of activities are highlighted on this site, we encourage you to reach out to us at emresearch@mcw.edu for any additional queries.
One of our department鈥檚 highlights is the Annual Wisconsin Emergency Medicine Research Forum. In partnership with the BerbeeWalsh Department of Emergency Medicine at the University of Wisconsin and the Wisconsin chapter of the American College of Emergency Physicians (WACEP), we co-host this annual meeting that showcases the ways in which local and regional collaboratives are advancing the field of emergency medicine.

Multidisciplinary Acute Research Team (MART)
The MART facilitates research in the Emergency Department setting by leveraging resources between projects, giving investigators extended periods of coverage while only paying for the time that is used for the project. This program gives researchers access to a team of research assistants who are familiar with the emergency department setting and able to complete research tasks without interfering with patient care or clinical workflow. All faculty from the three participating departments (Emergency Medicine, Trauma and Acute Care Surgery, and Neurology/Neurosurgery) can utilize this team for both funded and unfunded studies.
If you are interested in utilizing this team for a current or future study, please reach out to the MART Program Manager, Nicole Fumo, MPH (nfumo@mcw.edu) for more information.
