The Office of Research supports the research activities of faculty, staff & students at the University of South Carolina.
Today, we are thrilled to launch the Carolina Grants and Innovation Hub, a one-stop shop for @UofSC faculty researchers and research administrators to get innovative training and proposal development support. 🔗sc.edu/about/offices_…
We are excited to contribute to the positive momentum Rep. Bannister describes so well. As the state's flagship research university, our world-class faculty are driving innovation in brain health, energy, AI & more, enhancing the lives of our neighbors across the Palmetto State.
Strong piece by @UofSCLaw grad Rep. @BruceBannister on SC’s momentum as a destination for corporate HQs. @UofSC is proud to support that growth through talent, research and leadership that help drive South Carolina forward. #SCEconomy postandcourier.com/opinion/commen…
Thank you @SenTomDavisSC for your leadership and that of the SC General Assembly. The Palmetto State continues to lead the way with her Flagship university, @UofSC and the @USCResearch team helping pave the path! #ForeverToThee
Today, the US Department of @Energy designated four national labs, including @SRNLab, as priority sites for building data centers to support #AI — the result of hard work by many South Carolinians, e.g., Gov. @HenryMcMaster, Sen. @LindseyGrahamSC, and @UofSC’s @JuliusThor_VPR.
Check out this article on the SC Alzheimer's Disease Registry, which has been empowering researchers with the data they need to better understand and address dementia in the Palmetto State since 1988. sc.edu/uofsc/posts/20…

Caitlin Hudac on her mobile approach to neurodevelopment research: “I can test the same exact brain measure, and the kids are just so much more relaxed when they’re sitting on their own couch with their dog at their feet."
It's not always easy for people to travel to Columbia to participate in research, so USC psychologist Caitlin Hudac is taking her lab on the road. She hopes to expand her work to understand more about the brain and conditions linked to autism. sc.edu/uofsc/posts/20…
The Brain Health Network is now serving patients at its new clinic in Orangeburg County, an area disproportionately affected by Alzheimer's disease and related dementia. We are so proud of the positive impact USC Brain Health is making across the Palmetto State.
We’ve added a seventh star to our USC Brain Health Network map — Orangeburg! In collaboration with @HopeHealthInc, our expert staff now offer cognitive screening and assessment and help identifying critical community resources to residents in this high-needs area.
These South Carolina leaders are celebrating AI Appreciation Day by working together to develop a sound AI strategy to support the people of the Palmetto State.
USC VP for Research @JuliusThor_VPR enjoyed catching up with SC Rep. @SyllesteDavis, chair of the House 3M Committee, to discuss how the state’s needs align with @UofSC innovation — with a focus on AI and its growing impact for SC & beyond. #SCStrong #ResearchImpact
Our Center Associate Director, Becca Smith Hill was recently elected Vice-Chair of Research for the @SEPSEAlliance Board of Directors. We're excited to continue contributing to leading edge research in #IPSE best practice. @USCResearch @thinkcollegeICI @UofSCEducation
“Based on the literature and our prior pilot study, we know this group of children is particularly underserved among all children involved in the child welfare system and in kinship care,” Xu says.
When parents can’t provide care, relatives and close friends often step in. Professor Yanfeng Xu's KinCarolina study explores how better support can improve outcomes for these kinship families. More here: bit.ly/40gpZrY @USCResearch #socialwork
