At a time when the federal government is making drastic cuts in funding to institutions of higher education and major healthcare programs like Medicaid, Oregon State University has some good news.

OSU eclipsed the $400 million mark in research expenditures for the second consecutive year in fiscal year 2025 while advancing knowledge in areas ranging from energy solutions and precision medicine to environmental resilience, critical minerals, robotics and artificial intelligence.

Joining the Exchange to offer deeper insight is Dr. Irem Tumer, Vice President for Research and Innovation at OSU.
