Population Studies Workshop
Bethesda, Maryland

Jackson Heart Study – longitudinal study of African Americans in Jackson, MS Strong Heart Study – longitudinal study of American Indians in ND, AZ and OK 6:00 p.m. July 28 – Noon, July 31, 2013 at the National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, Maryland Application due: April 1, 2013

September 25, 2013 - September 26, 2013
NHLBI Symposium on Cardiovascular Regenerative Medicine
NIH Campus - Building 45: Natcher Conference Center

The symposium will again bring together experts in basic stem cell biology, as well as clinical cardiovascular medicine, to discuss the emerging basic and developmental science, preclinical animal advances and potential clinical applications. The emphasis will be on recent discoveries and trends, and we will discuss the challenges and critical scientific questions as we continue to advance the field and seek opportunities for clinical translation. Topics will include general and cardiovascular stem cells, clinical applications, tissue engineering, developmental biology, and large-scale proteomics/metabolomics as a tool to identify new clinical deliverables.

Previous twelve months

April 5, 2013
NIH National Research Mentoring Network (NRMN) Planning Grant Informational Webinar
Participation by webinar only

The National Research Mentoring Network (NRMN) initiative aims to coordinate nationwide pairings of students and faculty for robust mentoring relationships, develop standards for good mentoring, and provide training for mentors. The NIH is supporting six-month planning grants for NRMN. Learn more about the current funding opportunity for NRMN planning grants by participating in this webinar.

April 3, 2013
NIH Building Infrastructure Leading to Diversity (BUILD) Planning Grant Informational Webinar
Participation by webinar only

The Building Infrastructure Leading to Diversity (BUILD) initiative aims to strengthen infrastructure of comparatively under-resourced institutions with high concentrations of students from disadvantaged backgrounds by providing research experiences for undergraduates and resources for faculty. The NIH is supporting six-month planning grants for BUILD. Learn more about the current funding opportunity for BUILD planning grants by participating in this webinar.

March 20, 2013 - March 21, 2013
Cancer Treatment-Related Cardiotoxicity: Understanding the Current State of Knowledge and Developing Future Research Priorities
Rockville, Maryland

The goals of anti-cancer therapies are to prevent recurrence, prolong life, and provide cure. Partly due to improvements in treatment, the population of cancer survivors is large and growing. However, cancer treatment-related cardiotoxicity is the leading cause of treatment-associated mortality in survivors of pediatric and adolescent cancers, after recurrence and second or subsequent malignancies.
