NFEM

The concept of "state-of-the-art" medical care and knowledge is ever-evolving and highly dependent upon quality research and development of new treatments, medications, and technologies to bring the highest and most appropriate levels of care to the patient. Historically, however, Emergency Medicine has not received nearly enough funding for research programs from traditional sources (NIH, foundations, etc.) that are available to other branches of medicine. NFEM is working to change that medical research funding paradigm. How? By promoting new research funding and findings with the highest and latest treatment modalities and bringing them to the bedsides of Emergency Department patients. We are accomplishing this through a multi-prong approach of direct and other research funding, stewarding and mentoring Emergency Medicine research, and supporting the dissemination and introduction of findings into clinical practice.
