Enhancing the real-world impact of research

Located in the VA Office of Research and Development under the Health Services Research & Development service, QUERI adapts rigorous research methods and findings to meet health system priorities and Veteran needs. Since its inception in 1998, QUERI has grown to support a national network of 200+ investigators who have completed more than 500 rigorous peer-reviewed implementation, evaluation, dissemination, and training initiatives addressing VA priorities.

QUERI funding opportunities provide support for VA investigator teams to work as equal partners with frontline providers, clinical managers, and healthcare leaders to ensure Veterans have access to the highest quality of care.
