As Oregon’s only public academic health center, OHSU:

  • Cares for patients
  • Educates doctors, nurses, dentists, pharmacists and other health care professionals
  • Conducts extensive research, including clinical trials, to test new ways to prevent, detect, and treat illness
  • OHSU is also Portland’s largest employer and a statewide economic powerhouse. Its state-of-the-art research facilities include the 320,000-square-foot Knight Cancer Research Building and the multi-university collaborative Robertson Life Sciences Building.
