Research at the ʼһ: Knowledge Changing Life
Our Mission
MCW Research by the Numbers
Our Core Research Focuses
Basic Science Research
A single idea, if properly pursued, is all it takes to save a life. MCW scientists are discovery-drivers, working to uncover more innovative and cutting-edge treatments with every study they conduct.
MCW DepartmentsTranslational Research
It’s one thing to observe something new, but quite another to turn it into improved treatments that positively impact health. Translational scientists do exactly that—translate science and research into real change.
Research Resources
The Office of Research hosts this resource site to assist investigators and their teams with onboarding, funding, and shared resources.

We Unlock Mysteries
Dr. Krucoff joined MCW as a highly recruited physician-scientist conducting groundbreaking research and providing cutting-edge treatment for brain tumors. His research focuses on the development of techniques that modulate brain function through electrical stimulation. He hopes this work will expand on current surgical limitations and help make the removal of tumors safer and more complete for his patients.
We Improve Outcomes
Dr. Joseph Zenga, a head and neck surgical oncologist and associate professor at MCW, is leveraging the power of research to help improve cancer outcomes for his patients. His team's research on an innovative pilot treatment, known as hypofractionated radiation, has the potential to reduce the length of radiation by weeks.
We Battle Cancer
For 20 years, Michele Battle, PhD, a development biologist and professor in the Department of Cell Biology, Neurobiology and Anatomy at MCW, has worked to decipher the code on how cells develop and become specialized for different functions and why cells don't function properly in disease. The Battle Lab is currently focused on seeking this knowledge to better understand how to heal cancer cells.
