Scientific research is part of the mission assumed in the Charter of the University of Medicine and Pharmacy of Craiova. Research activities are integrated at both the educational and clinical levels, leading to results that incorporate elements of basic sciences, clinical applications and public health.

            Each of the four faculties has its own research directions, all of which are integrated into the university's research strategy.

            Three research centres have been set up at the university, combining the expertise not only of the academics involved but also the enthusiasm of young students:

·        Gastroenterology and Hepatology Research Centre

·        Microscopic Morphology and Immunology Studies Centre

·        Drug Research Centre
