Research
Northwestern’s Wolfe-Harris Center for Clinical Studies, located on the Bloomington campus, houses one of the leading natural health care research centers in the United States. The Center’s two newest studies, focusing on back-related leg pain and integrative care for low back pain, pushed the University over the $7 million mark in funding from federal agencies. That is the largest amount of federal funding of any research center in the country focusing solely on natural health care research. In addition, the University’s research efforts are now being expanded to the other academic programs on campus. A limited study was conducted in 2006 in the teaching clinic of the Minnesota College of Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine, and the Center recently completed a pilot study of massage therapy for tension headaches.20

Famous quotes containing the word research:
“Men talk, but rarely about anything personal. Recent research on friendship ... has shown that male relationships are based on shared activities: men tend to do things together rather than simply be together.... Female friendships, particularly close friendships, are usually based on self-disclosure, or on talking about intimate aspects of their lives.”
—Bettina Arndt (20th century)
“Our science has become terrible, our research dangerous, our findings deadly. We physicists have to make peace with reality. Reality is not as strong as we are. We will ruin reality.”
—Friedrich Dürrenmatt (1921–1990)
“The research on gender and morality shows that women and men looked at the world through very different moral frameworks. Men tend to think in terms of “justice” or absolute “right and wrong,” while women define morality through the filter of how relationships will be affected. Given these basic differences, why would men and women suddenly agree about disciplining children?”
—Ron Taffel (20th century)
