The Arizona Emergency Medicine Research Center created in 1990 is one of eight centers of excellence at The University of Arizona College of Medicine and is the research and education arm of the Department of Emergency Medicine.

Our mission is through research and education to improve the care of patients with emergent problems whether in the Emergency Department or in the field.

Our areas of research are diverse and range from basic research to the application of new clinical procedures. The Center has three primary research foci that include Preparedness, Injury Prevention and Translational Research.

The Department of Emergency Medicine at The University of Arizona is proud to introduce two new faculty members embarking on a novel journey – The Arizona Clinician Scientist Program.  Drs. Isaac Farrell and Lisa Stoneking will enter the two-year mentored faculty program whose goal is to produce academic emergency physicians capable of launching highly successful academic careers. The program respects the need to develop skill sets in four domains: Clinical expertise, Teaching excellence, Research fundamentals and life long Professional Service.  These will be achieved through structured experiences and opportunities including graduate coursework in research methods, protected research time and support, mentored grant applications, effective clinical teaching techniques and broad mentoring from senior faculty. Upon completion, these physicians will have exceptional potential for rapid promotion in the academic environment.
