The University of Michigan Thyroid and Thyroid Cancer Research Team (ThyCARE) has an overarching commitment to conducting research studies that directly impact patient care. Collaborations across disciplines, including endocrinology, oncology, surgery, primary care, social work, epidemiology, biostatistics,  and health management policy, have led to rigorous research that in many cases drives clinical practice changes. The team has had publications in high impact journals such as JAMA, Lancet, NEJM, BMJ, JCEM, and Thyroid. The ThyCARE team is also devoted to mentoring the next generation of researchers.
