Housed within the Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center and College of Medicine, the Center for Bioethics stands as a forum for collaborative research, education, and clinical consultation involving multiple interprofessional disciplines and perspectives to give consideration to theoretical ethics, empirical ethics, professionalism, humanities, spirituality, religion, law, and public policy. The Center mobilizes the necessary conversation and executes initiatives to better accomplish the OSU Wexner Medical Center’s mission “to improve people’s lives through innovation in research, education, and patient care.”
The College of Medicine Office of Research in collaboration with The Ohio State University Health System has developed a defined process for granting access to the electronic health record, IHIS (Integrated Healthcare Information System), for research purposes. This process creates uniformity in the approval of access to protected health information (PHI) for research purposes and promotes compliance with regulations and institutional policies.
The STEAM Factory hosts a variety of programs that aim to facilitate collaboration between STEAM members and connect research with the greater Columbus community. These programs contribute to the scholarship of research, teaching, and outreach for its members.
