HSI researchers, students, and alumni impact the world in many ways.

Roger Williams Medical Center (RWMC) tasked students in Healthcare Lab (H-Lab) to evaluate the nurse navigator's role and provide recommendations to improve workflow efficiency and patient outcomes.

To improve outcomes for patients, the Inherited Cardiac Arrhythmia Program at BCH asked H-Lab to assess the economic value of postmortem genetic testing after sudden cardiac death (SCD).

We awarded $280,000 across four projects for work that will be done over the next two years.

In March 2021, Jason Troutner, LGO ‘19 (MBA and MS Mech. Eng.) spoke during an HSI lunch seminar on “How the generic startup truisms fall short in the world of medical devices"
