Research
Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center (BIDMC) is home to a preeminent academic research program where scientific discoveries are helping to transform medical care. Basic research to study fundamental life processes at the molecular level routinely informs clinic research. In turn, the findings gained through
clinical research help to take laboratory investigations in new directions.
BIDMC's research program is truly translational.
The Voices of BIDMC Research
Heather Kahn introduces you to Dr. Pier Paolo Pandolfi along with some of BIDMC's other researchers and physician-scientists whose investigations are uncovering exciting new findings that influence our health and well-being: from diet and nutrition to exercise and bone health, from personalized medicine to leading-edge cancer treatments, from new information about how grief can literally lead to a broken heart, and surprising discoveries into the role that placebos might play to our health.
