Where bold dreams become the future of medicine.

At the University of Colorado Anschutz, discovery never stands still. Every day, our researchers push the boundaries of science to improve human health and well-being. Over the past year, our researchers have driven new breakthroughs and innovations in cancer care, diabetes, bioinformatics, neuroscience, addiction and more —translating discoveries from the lab to the clinic faster than ever before.

Collaboration is intrinsic to our campus and at the heart of this progress. Across our six health professional schools, two nationally recognized hospitals, and dozens of interdisciplinary research centers, CU Anschutz investigators are uniting expertise, innovation and cutting-edge science to solve the most urgent health challenges.

As you explore this year’s research highlights, you’ll see how our community’s relentless curiosity and commitment to impact are redefining the future of medicine—here in Colorado and around the world.
