Applied research and development (AR&D) of the Haute école de santé de Genève (HEdS) is coordinated within the Research Institute of the HEdS (IR-HEdS).

The principal mission of the IR-HEdS is to support high-quality AR&D, in the form of interdisciplinary collaborations – regional, national and international – as well as intra-department poles of expertise. The research results and new knowledge gained, feed both undergraduate and postgraduate training.

The IR-HEdS fulfils its mission by bringing both methodological and strategic support to HEdS researchers.
