Future Positions in the Division of Prevention and Population Sciences
The Division of Prevention and Population Sciences is going through an exciting period of expansion.

Examples of programs we support include the Framingham Heart Study, the Hispanic Community Health Study, the Women’s Health Initiative, the Action to Control Cardiovascular Risk in Diabetes (ACCORD) trial, and the HMO-based nationwide Cardiovascular Research Network (CVRN). Among our research growth areas are physical activity, behavior-oriented clinical trials, health services research, and vascular risk prevention beginning in childhood.
