The Health Research Think Tank (HeaRTT) consists of UAA research faculty and a broad spectrum of partners from service agencies, research agencies, and health care providers in the community. The group engages in research, roundtables, and community forums on health care issues of importance to Alaskans, supported in part by UAA’s Center for Advancing Faculty Excellence (CAFÉ), the Office of Research and Graduate Studies, and the Office of Community Partnerships.
