UHCOP Hits New Research Record

College Receives $10.87 Million in Research Funding, Ranks 23rd Among U.S. Peer Institutions in FY2018 

May 23 — UH College of Pharmacy has climbed to 23rd in research funding from all sources and 25th in grants from the National Institutes of Health and other federal sources in Fiscal Year 2018 among peer institutions across the nation, according to data released this month by the American Association of Colleges of Pharmacy (AACP).

According to the AACP data, UHCOP recorded $10.87 million in research funding from all sources, which includes $9.02 million in research funding from NIH and other federal sources. 

The AACP's Funded Grant Institutional Rankings report for FY2018, which spans the period from Oct. 1, 2017, to Sept. 30, 2018, captures institutional direct and indirect (subcontracted) research support from NIH and other federal agencies, state agencies, foundations and associations, the pharmaceutical industry and other extramural sources.

"This is an outstanding achievement by our highly productive faculty members who are advancing the college forward while seeking innovative solutions and therapies to many life-threatening and debilitating illnesses and other challenges to the wellbeing of our communities and patients across the state, the U.S. and the world," said UHCOP Dean F. Lamar Pritchard, Ph.D., R.Ph.
