Waller Institute for Research in Radiology
The Waller Institute for Research in Radiology (WIRR) is an international non-profit organization founded in 2020 during the COVID-19 pandemic and based in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. WIRR's primary mission is to expand access to radiology research by providing opportunities for students of all backgrounds to collaborate with physicians and contribute remotely to radiology-focused literature reviews, systematic reviews, and meta-analyses[1]. WIRR members conduct and publish research pertaining to medical imaging (as well as Health Economics) in the contexts of topics such as COVID-19, cervical cancer, and bipolar disorder. Its CEO is Joseph Waller, who graduated from the University of Chicago and is now affiliated with Drexel University College of Medicine. Currently, WIRR is comprised of 6 virtual labs and over 30 research fellows from around the world. It is partnered with research advisers from Mayo Clinic, University of California San Francisco, Dartmouth College, Northwestern University, and Boston College. WIRR's most recent peer-reviewed articles include an investigation of the clinical utility of imaging methods for measuring hypoxia[2] published in British Journal of Radiology, a literature review about the applications of structural and functional MRI for bipolar disorder[3] published in Japanese Journal of Radiology, and two systematic reviews exploring COVID-19 diagnostic modalities published in Investigative Radiology[4] and American Journal of Roentgenology[5]. In December 2020, WIRR released its inaugural edition of the Waller Institute for Research in Radiology magazine.[6]
