Research & Scholarly Activity at FWMEP

At FWMEP scholarly activity is an integral part of clinical training for residents.  Through these activities residents help to advance the practice of medicine and improve patient care.  Projects are encouraged to be community-based, interprofessional, and directed at improving the health of the Fort Wayne population, especially the vulnerable and underserved.  Research Teams include Residents, FWMEP Faculty, and interprofessionals from our community. FWMEP provides support for statistical assistance and travel for presentations. Brian Henriksen, PhD, Director, Research and Scholarly Activity works closely with residents on all phases of their projects.
