Emergency medicine research: 2030 strategic goals
All academic medical specialties have the obligation to continuously create new knowledge that will improve patient care and outcomes. Emergency medicine (EM) is no exception. Since its origins over 50 years ago, EM has struggled to fulfill its research mission. EM ranks last among clinical specialties in the percentage of medical school faculty who are National Institutes of Health (NIH)-funded principal investigators... Although there has been a steady increase in the number of NIH-funded projects and total NIH dollars, the slowing growth in the number of NIH-funded PIs and lack of growth in the number of EM departments with NIH-funded PIs is cause for concern.

Clinical research in emergency medicine: putting it together
The difficulties in conducting good clinical research in emergency medicine can be overcome. This article will begin by identifying the main difficulties faced by the emergency medicine researcher. It will then discuss some solutions through the development and application of the research protocol. Finally, recommendations will be made with regard to writing for publication.
Comparing National Institutes of Health funding of emergency medicine to four medical specialties
Compared to internal medicine, pediatrics, anesthesiology, and family medicine, EM received the least amount of NIH support per active faculty member and ranked next to last for NIH support by active physician. Given the many benefits of research both for the specialty and for society, EM needs to continue to develop and support an adequate cohort of independent investigators.
Emergency medicine research: 2030 strategic goals
Achieving these goals will require a targeted series of focused strategies to increase the number of EM faculty who are competitive for NIH funding. This requires a coordinated, intentional effort with investments at the national, departmental, and individual levels.
