In spring 2006, Ochsner established the Center for Health Research under the direction of Dr. M.A. “Tonette” Krousel-Wood. The mission of the Center is “to advance knowledge to improve clinical practices and the health and well-being of our patient population by conducting extramurally funded research and broadly disseminating research findings.” It accomplishes its mission by leading innovative research, collaborating with lead investigators from Tulane and other academic institutions, and publishing and presenting its research findings.
Areas of Expertise
- Cohort Studies
- Clinical Trials
