A Message from William Meeker, D.C., M.P.H., 
Vice President for Research at 
The Palmer Center for Chiropractic Research:

Welcome to our research Web pages and the quickly evolving Palmer Center for Chiropractic Research at a glance. Our goal is to become one of the foremost health research centers, contributing regularly to the intellectual background and practical application of chiropractic concepts. If you will please refer to our Research Efforts page, you may note that the Center is well on its way.
 
We have assembled a critical mass of highly skilled, experienced and motivated scientists who are at work every day, tackling many issues critical to chiropractic and the entire health care system.
 
The Palmer University System has demonstrated its commitment by supporting an expanded research program including new facilities, new equipment and new initiatives. Funding, perhaps the most challenging aspect of developing chiropractic research, is still difficult. But, with new inroads to research programs supported by the Federal government and an ever-increasing level of sophistication among our faculty in collaboration with established research centers such as the University of Iowa, National University of Health Sciences, Kansas State University and SUNY Stony Brook, the future looks good.
 
We appreciate your support, encouragement and suggestions. Check this site again and note our progress. And please, don't hesitate to give us a call at any of our three Palmer College of Chiropractic campuses: in Iowa at (563) 884-5150; in California at (408) 944-6066; or in Florida at (866) 585-9677.
