UCLA Expands Think Tank Partnership
UCLA and the Rand Corp. have agreed to expand and formalize their health-care partnership.
The 30-year association between the university and Rand, a Santa Monica-based think tank, has resulted in such research as the largest study to date of the quality of health care provided to AIDS patients and a continuing study of the quality of cancer care in the Los Angeles area.
Officials said the agreement, announced this week, will expand the ability of UCLA faculty members to take part in research projects at Rand and commits Rand researchers to broaden their role in UCLA’s health policy training programs.
