We connect all of our cores, institutions, and community partners across Vermont, New Hampshire and Maine into one cohesive network. The result is an unparalleled wealth of expertise in clinical and translational research that we use to address local health challenges.
Important Work Starts Here
Our network is leveraging decades of clinical and translational experience to guide network organization and engagement across northern New England.
Our Three Essential Functions
Oversee Network Operations
We guide core leads and their teams to deliver optimal services for our members; oversee, approve, and coordinate all core operations; meet with advisory groups to inform network strategies; and convert core data into actionable metrics and best practices.
Increase Engagement & Services
We connect people with shared research interests and health priorities; find and promote funding opportunities for our members; organize seminars, newsletters, press releases, and our website to engage and inform our network; and serve as the bridge for our members and other resources/programs.
Promote Better Health and Health Care Solutions to our Rural communities
We create innovative communication strategies to help bridge the gap between research and rurality; and ensure NNE-CTR research and community engagement activities represent the people of our region.
