Why Riley Children's Health

The academic health center formed by Indiana University School of Medicine (IUSM) and Riley Children's has a tri-fold purpose:

• We train the next generation of healthcare professionals through one of the largest medical schools in the nation, plus the Indiana University School of Nursing and the Indiana University School of Health & Human Sciences.
• We are committed to pediatric healthcare research that advances care for children. Our affiliation with IUSM makes us one of the busiest locations in the United States for funded pediatric health research by the National Institutes of Health and others. Our research directly impacts care for patients who participate in our clinical trials.
• We collaborate with referring physicians and community providers to bring world-class primary and specialty care to families in Indiana and beyond. Riley is the largest, most comprehensive and most skilled pediatric healthcare system in Indiana.
