Institute of Geriatric Psychiatry
The Weill Cornell Institute of Geriatric Psychiatry's mission has been to conduct groundbreaking research in late-life psychiatric disorders, train future research and clinical leaders in Geriatric Psychiatry, and provide high-quality specialized care to older adults.
The ALACRITY Center focuses on late- and mid-life mood disorders because they are the leading cause of disability, increase medical morbidity and mortality, cause suffering, and increase the cost of care. The ALACRITY Center puts into action a novel model of deployment-based behavioral interventions and implementation, streamlined based on neurobiology models and augmented by mobile technology.
Cornell Center for Health Equity
The Cornell Center for Health Equity (CCHEq) responds directly to community priorities by focusing on practical, relevant research topics. It brings together research experts at Weill Cornell Medicine and at Cornell University’s Ithaca campus to collaborate on how to achieve health equity. The Center engages members of the public in every step of the research process, from conceptualization through dissemination and implementation.
