What research is done in Milwaukee?

Papers authored at Milwaukee's institutions — Medical College of Wisconsin, University of Wisconsin–Milwaukee, Marquette University — with the Prism stance layer.

Summary

The city’s research engine is overwhelmingly medical: the Medical College of Wisconsin contributes 2859 of 5093 papers in the available record, ahead of UW–Milwaukee’s 1315. Children’s health, women’s health, mental health, hypertension and breast cancer stand out as opportunity areas.

WATCH Watch whether strong medical research translates into more clinical ventures and community health programs.
Research outlook for Milwaukee
