PCORI funds comparative clinical effectiveness research (CER) that helps people make informed healthcare decisions and improves healthcare delivery and outcomes by producing evidence from research guided by patients, their caregivers and the broader health and healthcare community.

In PCORI-funded research, patients and other interested communities are equitable partners who leverage their lived experience and expertise to influence research to be more patient centered, relevant and useful.

Activities to advance the awareness of and use of findings from PCORI-funded research bridge the gap between research and practice to help patients, caregivers and others make better informed health decisions, improve care delivery and patient outcome.
