About Wisconsin Medicine
Wisconsin Medicine is a collaboration between two of the world’s leading medical institutions, UW Health and the University of Wisconsin School of Medicine and Public Health, who have worked together for more than a century on innovative treatments, trailblazing research, renowned education, and compassionate patient care.
This powerful combination is in a unique position to usher in a new era of medicine, one that builds on the cutting-edge breakthroughs and discoveries already achieved. There’s more work to be done — and more lives to be saved.
Wisconsin Medicine is an effort to fight debilitating diseases and solve some of the world’s most pressing health challenges.

Now, Wisconsin Medicine is preparing for the extraordinary. It’s the Wisconsin Idea in action — making a difference in our state, throughout the nation, and around the world.
