About DARE
Founded in 2018, under the leadership of Rich Isaacs and the Associate Executive Directors, DARE provides infrastructure, connections, and analytic support to clinician-researchers for answering questions that will change care. It fosters collaborations between clinician-investigators and Division of Research scientists and provides support from initial idea development to when data informs implementation so that they may conduct impactful research that is efficient and collaborative in design, and produces acceptable and implementable results.
The DARE program includes:
- Multiple funding mechanisms for investigations of varying duration/complexity;
- The Physician Researcher Program, providing high-level support for selected clinicians across specialties;
- A one-stop idea/funding submission portal and efficient core administrative team;
- Specialty-specific research networks that build communities of evidence-driven clinicians.
- Research tools, collaborations, and funding
