Duke-Margolis Institute's Dedication to Student Research 

The mission of Duke University's Robert J. Margolis, MD, Institute for Health Policy is to improve health and the value of health care through practical, innovative, and evidence-based policy solutions. Duke-Margolis brings together capabilities that generate and analyze evidence across the spectrum of policy to practice, supporting the triple aim of health care – improving the experience of care, the health of populations, and reducing the per capita cost. This requires broad multidisciplinary capabilities that few institutions can bring together, and is fueled by Duke University’s entrepreneurial culture. The Institute focuses on increasing opportunities to gain exposure to the field of health policy through collaborative curricular pathways and expanded mentored research opportunities for students interested in health policy.


Duke Summer Research Showcase 

 

For summer 2023, the event was presented by the Duke Undergraduate Research Support Office and the Duke Office of Undergraduate Education as part of their ongoing efforts to promote student reearch. The Margolis summer interns, along with 11 Duke sponsored summer programs, had the opportunity to present their academic research posters to the public. Student presenters came from 15 different universities across the nation to conduct academic research this summer. Research topics range from biological sciences, health policy, engineering, medicine, evolutionary anthropology, neuroscience, natural sciences. The inaugural showcase, intended to become an annual event, is the first time these Duke entities and organizations have collaborated to produce an event of this nature.
