Clinic Recognition

The mission of WREN  is to promote and conduct high-quality translational primary care research and education in partnership with primary care clinicians and the communities they serve.

Over the years many clinics from various health systems have collaborated on WREN projects. We are grateful for the commitment of these clinics and their staff members who voluntarily agree to participate in WREN projects. Without you we could not conduct the research necessary to make WREN projects a success.

Word cloud - Thank you.
