Corewell Health is the new name for Beaumont.

Our residency has a long history and continued commitment to excellent emergency medicine research. Each of our residents completes at least one scholarly project during their training, and each year several are able to present their work at regional and national conferences. Our stellar research faculty mentor residents from the beginning of residency with formal education on research methodology, through the completion of each of their projects. The department and institution provide significant resources towards that end. The Emergency Department has a full time research nurse manager who oversees a research staff of 7 people, two of which are based at our community hospital in Troy, Michigan.  The Beaumont Research Institute provides necessary support (IRB, contracts, statistics, etc.) to conduct small or large scale research.  

Corewell Health William Beaumont University Hospital is proud of its research excellence and is active at both Royal Oak and Troy campuses, which provide care for approximately 230,000 patients annually. The focus of our clinical research is on cutting edge interventions which evaluate and treat the critically ill and injured patient. We are unique in that our research studies are performed not only within our four walls, but in different venues including the community, local Emergency Medical Services (EMS) agencies, and inpatient services. There are basic science labs and biobank available, but we currently do not have any ongoing basic science research.

The scope of emergency research is broad, ranging from long-term outcomes after minor injury to resuscitative care for cardiac arrest patients to comatose patients who are revived from cardiac arrest. 

Our researchers have expertise in resuscitation, EMS, ultrasound, pediatrics, geriatrics, medical education, and process improvement.  Our clinical researchers coordinate over 25 clinical trials, including physician-initiated single center studies and industry/NIH sponsored multi center trials.
