Dr. Vineet Chopra is a Professor of Medicine, holder of the Robert W. Schrier Endowed Chair, and Chairman of the Department of Medicine at the University of Colorado (CU). Prior to coming to CU in 2021, Dr. Chopra served as the inaugural Chief of the Division of Hospital Medicine at the University of Michigan from 2017-2021.
A career hospitalist, Chopra’s research and clinical interests are dedicated to improving the safety of hospitalized patients by preventing hospital-acquired conditions. His work focuses on identifying and preventing complications associated with central
