HSR&D's mission is to develop, evaluate, and rapidly implement evidence-based strategies that advance the health and care of Veterans. These summaries provide an overview of the impact that the programs of health services research (through HSR&D) and implementation science (through QUERI) are making for VA and Veterans. They summarize new initiatives and high priority activities in research, including responding to COVID-19 and quality of VA care, address high priorities of our VA partners, identify key research findings for the year, and earned achievements in research.
