New York's Leading Public Research Universities on the Forefront of Education and Innovation

New York’s leading public research universities are on the forefront of education and scientific innovation.


Only sixty-five years young, Stony Brook University is recognized as one of the nation’s top research universities, serving as a powerful engine for economic development, technological innovation and clinical care. SBU is not only transforming lives by revolutionizing cancer prognosis and advancing life-saving technologies for cardiac patients but also by offering a world-class education to students from all socio-economic backgrounds, providing them unmatched social and economic mobility.

The University at Buffalo was recognized as a research powerhouse back in 1989, when it became the first public university in New York invited to join the AAU, and its impact has only grown over the years. From developing new ways to treat memory loss in Alzheimer’s to pioneering minimally invasive surgical techniques, UB is making discoveries that lead to longer, healthier lives.

University at Buffalo researchers are focused on determining how to detect the biomarker for metastatic prostate cancer
A team of researchers led by Stony Brook University have identified a specific gene involved in the cancer stem cell (CSC) population process of triple-negative breast cancer. By blocking this gene’s action, tumor response to chemotherapy is improved.
A University at Buffalo study examines 190,000 patients over 15 years, finds acid reflux drugs increase risk of kidney disease by 20 percent
Analyzing children’s communications patterns may help with diagnosis and treatment of autism, a team of Stony Brook University researchers has found.
There appears to be a link between chronic PTSD in 9/11 responders and dementia, according to a new pilot study led by researchers at Stony Brook University and the Stony Brook World Trade Center Health and Wellness Program.
