The Research Institute at Saint Louis University is a newly formed entity intended to promote and advance a new generation of groundbreaking research bearing the SLU name.
The Research Institute
In 2018, SLU received a historic $50 million gift from Dr. Jeanne and Rex Sinquefield. The Sinquefields placed research excellence at the heart of their gift, giving SLU ample resources to extend its unique brand of Jesuit research to humanity’s challenges all over the world.
But with hundreds of research projects happening around the world, the Research Institute was missing the big picture. They asked: how do these stories tell a broader story about SLU? Better yet, how do we tell that story in a way that attracts new donors?
The Annual Report
We led a comprehensive effort to produce what came to be known as the Research Institute Impact Report, an annual publication celebrating the scholars, discoveries and ambitions that define SLU’s distinct brand of research excellence. We envisioned it as a coffee table book, designed to be picked up and flipped through at your leisure.
