Northeast Ohio Medical University and the Cleveland Browns announced a partnership that kicked off in September 2024. This strategic alliance is further developing NEOMED’s capacity to address public health issues facing Northeast Ohio communities through education and advocacy.

“Everything we do at NEOMED is a team sport—training the next generation of physicians, pharmacists, dentists and scientific researchers,” said NEOMED President John T. Langell, M.D. “As a ‘Proud Partner’ of the Cleveland Browns, we can increase access for our students to serve the communities of Greater Cleveland. Nearly 4,000 NEOMED graduates are healthcare professionals working across Ohio.”

As part of the partnership, NEOMED is prominently featured at Huntington Bank Field, as well as on the NFL team’s website, social media and gameday media network. The University’s students have benefited from participation in exclusive events to engage with the Browns medical staff and the organization’s “Browns Give Back” community initiative. The initiative presents the opportunity for NEOMED to collaborate on innovative, impactful community outreach involving students in Northeast Ohio.
