Committed to improving healthcare

IU also makes a statewide impact through eight medical education centers in Bloomington, Gary, Fort Wayne, Muncie, South Bend, Terre Haute, West Lafayette, and our newest facility under construction in Evansville.

Our partnership with IU Health

The state’s largest healthcare system, IU Health advances new and improved treatments, innovative procedures, and cures through an investment in research at the IU School of Medicine. Initial target research areas in cancer, neuroscience, and cardiovascular disease have driven the development of highly personalized new therapies using the latest genetic tools.

IU Health and the IU School of Medicine are also working together to address critical health issues facing the state of Indiana, including the opioid crisis, mental health services, and statewide access to care.
