IHDR’s Mission is to help achieve health equity in South and Central Texas, the United States, and beyond by producing innovative, community-informed basic and applied research that uncovers the root causes of health disparities.

We strive to support our affiliates’ conduction of innovative studies integrating biological and social determinants of health, capturing the ways in which (dis)advantage gets under the skin, and designing and evaluating pioneering community-informed programs to improve health equity.
