Research
Research at Dartmouth's Geisel School of Medicine is diverse and well funded. In fact, the Geisel School managed 515 active sponsored projects in the 2011 fiscal year. The Geisel School is a national leader in collaborative, interdisciplinary research projects, as evidenced by programs such as its Immunotherapy Center, Center for Shared Decision Making, and the Spine Center. The result is an intellectually stimulating environment where scientists, clinicians, researchers, and students join forces on nationally recognized projects that are changing lives.

Dr. Surachai Supattapone and his team investigate the underlying molecular mechanisms that give rise
to the perplexing group of neurodegenerative disorders known as prion diseases."In other labs I've worked in, I've never felt so comfortable asking questions and having other people ask me questions."
"For a long time, I think, both nationally and
internationally, we have been at the forefront of
translational research around back pain and spine
surgery. And now we've done the largest trial
in the country--eleven states--looking at operative
versus nonoperative treatment for spine conditions.
We've received over $30 million in federal funding.
I think the impact here is huge." --Dr. James
Weinstein, President and CEO of Dartmouth-
Hitchcock; and Professor of Orthopaedic Surgery"What we have at the Geisel School is high specific gravity. It's a relatively
small institution, but within each department each person has a lot to offer.
They carry as much weight as a faculty three times this size."

Professor of Biochemistry and Medicine
