About Cleveland Clinic Research

Cleveland Clinic has operated for over 100 years on the principle of bringing innovative teams together to advance care for patients. Today, we are a world leader in science-based healthcare. Our strategic plan for research harnesses information technology to power significant advances in both personalized and population medicine. A major component of our strategy includes our anchor role in building the Cleveland Innovation District. This unprecedented collaboration includes participation and investment by the State of Ohio along with five independent Cleveland healthcare and academic institutions and is designed to transform research, education and economic opportunities in Northeast Ohio, the United States, and across the world.

Cleveland Clinic’s research footprint spans one million square feet in Cleveland and Florida, with two new state-of-the-art facilities scheduled to open in 2025 and 2026. In 2024, research funding grew to $520 million — including $176 million in federal funding and 632 federal awards. In addition, Cleveland Clinic’s global footprint provides a wealth of resources to support research throughout the enterprise, including at our locations in Northeast Ohio, Florida, London and Abu Dhabi.

Cleveland Clinic’s global locations engage with a large, growing and diverse patient population, giving our research teams access to tens of thousands of unique biological samples through the centralized Cleveland Clinic BioRepository. Cleveland Clinic’s Discovery Accelerator partnership with IBM leverages high-performance computing using hybrid cloud, artificial intelligence (AI) and quantum computing technologies to empower and accelerate big data research, with more than 60 research projects in progress. The Center for Therapeutic Discovery provides full-scale drug discovery efforts to identify new drug targets and therapeutic compounds. All these efforts ultimately coordinate with Cleveland Clinic Innovations, the technology commercialization team serving to transform our discoveries into clinical practice.

Faculty in Cleveland Clinic Research typically also become members of the Molecular Medicine Graduate Training Program and other programs at the neighboring Case Western Reserve University School of Medicine, providing access to excellent PhD students and trainees.
