Surgical Outcomes and Applied Research (SOAR)

The goal of this collaboration is to facilitate the development of outcomes research by Department of Surgery faculty, including active efforts to secure grant funding for surgical outcomes research.

The Surgical Outcomes and Applied Research (SOAR) program began in 2012 and is an ongoing collaboration between the Department of Surgery and the Adult & Child Consortium for Health Outcomes Research & Delivery Science (ACCORDS). The goals of this collaboration are to 1) facilitate the development of health services research (HSR) and surgical outcomes research by Department of Surgery faculty, including active efforts to secure intramural and extramural funding; 2) mentor faculty, residents, fellows and students in HSR and surgical outcomes research methods; and 3) provide robust biostatistics support for the design and analysis of HSR and surgical outcomes research.

Events

The Surgical Outcomes and Applied Research (SOAR) program hosts monthly research meetings on the last Tuesday of each month from 4:30-6:00 p.m. MST.
