Our Vision & Goals
Howard University’s role as a major comprehensive metropolitan research university is embedded in its research goals which are to “investigate diseases that disproportionately affect African Americans” and “encourage multi-disciplinary approaches to research.”
Critical to these goals is research on minority health and health disparities.
The HU RCMI Program functions as an essential partner in realizing the institution’s research goals, and aims to provide the following resources in the support of biomedical, translational, and clinical research
The Howard University Research Centers in Minority (RCMI) Program is supported by the National Institute on Minority Health and Health Disparities (NIMHD) of the National Institutes of Health (NIH) under Award Number 2U54MD007597.
