At ICHS, research addresses a wide variety of health problems and issues facing Alaskans, many of which are common to populations in the circumpolar north. Alaska's rural and multi-cultural environment calls for a multi-disciplinary approach to defining health problems and identifying appropriate solutions.

ICHS research agenda includes epidemiologic studies of population health problems, studies of health services need, access and utilization, and evaluation of health policy and the effectiveness of new programs. (research projects)
