Established in November 2022

The Trauma Research and Combat Casualty Care Collaborative (TRC4) is a research entity singularly focused on addressing the critical need for improved trauma care in the United States. The unique collaboration, established by the UT Board of Regents and funded in part by Texas lawmakers, will operate out of The University of Texas at San Antonio and serve all UT academic and health institutions.

Initial Collaborative Partners: University of Texas System and the Department of Defense

Prevalence of Trauma and Need for Research

Despite its prevalence, trauma receives disproportionately less funding. Trauma injuries are the primary cause of mortality and permanent disability among individuals under 44 years of age.

Based at The University of Texas at San Antonio and Partnered with UT System Institutions

TRC4 serves as a unique collaborative entity seeking to catalyze transformative research efforts into trauma care.
