National MEDVAMC Research Week
“Centennial Anniversary of VA Research”
May 12 – 16, 2025
VA Research Week takes place every year to highlight our exceptional VA researchers and the incredible work they do at the MEDVAMC to improve the lives of Veterans. This year’s VA Research Week included a Research Experience Fair, in which Research Service Line lab groups could share their research in real time with Veterans. More than 500 Veterans attended and visited our study tables. Additionally, we held a Veteran Engagement Panel, which offered a powerful and emotional close to the week’s events. The session featured VA scientists presenting brief overviews of their research, followed by Veterans who shared heartfelt stories about how their lives were changed through participation in VA research.
