Craniofacial Outcomes Research and Epidemiology (CORE) Group

The Craniofacial Outcomes Research and Epidemiology (CORE) team is dedicated to elevating healthcare for children and families of children with craniofacial conditions. The CORE collaboration includes a vibrant hub of expertise, uniting specialists with clinical experience and diverse skills in outcomes research, evaluation of large datasets, qualitative research, data science, and informatics.

Our work is deeply rooted in examining clinical outcomes and leveraging a data-informed approach to illuminate pathways for better care. At the heart of our mission is a commitment to patient-centered care. We actively partner with individuals and families, valuing their unique perspectives. Their input directly shapes our research, ensuring we explore the areas that resonate most with their experiences and needs, combined with our partners in craniofacial team care. Through this comprehensive approach, we're dedicated to improving the holistic health of children and families with craniofacial conditions.
