Abstract

Background/Aims The HMORN Rural Health SIG aims to facilitate rural health research by providing a forum to discuss ideas, determine needs, and identify investigators and resources that lead to research proposals, sponsored projects, and published manuscripts in peer-reviewed scientific literature. Rural areas have about 25% of the USA population (75 million people). Their health status and needs are distinctly different from non-rural populations and have been disproportionately understudied, but yet have great health disparities. At least 7 HMORN member organizations have substantial rural populations that provide compelling research opportunities.
