About CIHDER
The Center of Excellence for Integrative Health Disparities and Equity Research (CIHDER) is a research center housed in HCHHS that focuses on all aspects of health disparities and health equity research. Health disparities and health equity research is complex and multi-faceted. To work toward the alleviation of these disparities, CIHDER is focused on working to create unique relationship-building activities and develop culturally sensitive engagement practices and research tools. Our work involves the diverse expertise of our NC A&T faculty, affiliate members, and community stakeholders to build sustainable and trusted relationships with minority ethnic groups and economically disadvantaged populations who bear the burden of disease.
