Welcome

Founded in 2016, S-SPIRE is more than a center; it is a community of surgeon-scientists, dedicated to research that shapes policy and improves the value of healthcare. In addition to a wealth of evergreen professional development and study design resources, our team is available to collaborate on health services research projects. Join us for weekly work-in-progress sessions to experience—and contribute to—our culture of mentorship and collaboration. All are welcome.
