Dartmouth Health’s Dartmouth Hitchcock Medical Center received a $27.7 million, seven-year grant from the National Institutes of Health to fund projects that will speed the implementation of proven medical innovations as part of a national consortium of biomedical research centers.

Our Mission

Welcome to SYNERGY, Dartmouth’s Clinical and Translational Science Institute. We aim to catalyze research and train scientists across the translational spectrum with a focus on rural healthcare delivery. Findings from our coproduction learning health system will be shared with the national CTSA network and provide novel insights into approaches to improve health and healthcare delivery to rural communities.
