Our 2025-26 Annual Report
The theme of this year's annual report – Rising Above: From Discovery to Care – captures not only the trajectory of our work, but the purpose that unites us as the University of Colorado Anschutz Department of Medicine. Every discovery we make carries the potential to improve lives, and every patient we serve inspires the next question worth pursuing. Our greatest strength has always been our people – their expertise, resilience, and unwavering commitment to improving the lives of others. That commitment ensures that every discovery has the opportunity to become something greater: better care for our patients and healthier communities for all. Even in uncertain times, we continue to rise above – together.
