Research
Whether finding faster ways to fight disease or deepening our understanding of the past, Case Western Reserve is committed to research and scholarship that changes lives.
We’re applying artificial intelligence to improve health outcomes and to identify ancient paintings’ artists. We’re digging in Ethiopia to learn more about evolution, and making manufacturing smarter in Northeast Ohio.
One breakthrough at a time, we’re helping to build a better world.
Turning Ideas into Inventions
Medtronic Acquires Our Heart-Mapping Technology for $93M
Two graduate students transformed a lab project into a clinical tool. Years later, Medtronic bought the company they co-founded for $93 million.
Shaping the Future
Measuring Our Impact
Members of the CWRU community conduct research daily that makes a lasting difference. But don’t take it from us—the numbers tell our story.
Opportunities to Engage
We’re so eager for undergraduates to participate in research that we created SOURCE, an entire office devoted to connecting them with opportunities—and LaunchNet, which helps students turn ideas into businesses.
For those in industry who may want to partner with our professors, please visit the Office of Corporate Relations.
The Student Experience
At Case Western Reserve, students play a critical role in our research mission—at the undergraduate, graduate and professional levels. Discover some of the ways CWRU students can get in the lab as soon as they arrive on campus—and how their efforts make a meaningful impact.
