This year marks the 70th Anniversary of the establishment of the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute.
NHLBI began as the National Heart Institute on June 16, 1948, when President Harry S. Truman signed the National Heart Act. The Institute expanded its mission (and name) to cover research on lung diseases, and in 1976, the Institute grew further to include blood disorders.
To commemorate the Institute's 70th anniversary and showcase important investments in scientific research, NHLBI will feature lectures throughout the year from prominent thought leaders representing areas of high scientific priority in heart, lung, blood, and sleep disorders.
The talks will be available to the public in-person and online via videocast.

Despite progress made in delivering evidence-based interventions for heart, lung, blood, and/or sleep disorders or diseases (HLBS conditions), these conditions remain major causes of death and disability. The National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI) convened management and clinicians from Community Health Centers (CHC); clinical pharmacists; HLBS specialists; community-based participatory researchers; leaders from schools of pharmacy; and Federal stakeholders, from National Institute for Nursing Research (NINR), Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA), Centers for Disease and Control and Prevention (CDC), Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS), National Cancer Institute (NCI). Community Health Centers, including Federally Qualified Health Centers (FQHC), are a healthcare safety net for low income and uninsured populations and provide outpatient care for one-out-of-every-twelve Americans. A better understanding of the barriers and facilitators for CHCs to deliver evidence-based prevention and control for HLBS disorders is needed. Recommendations from this workshop will provide NHLBI options to consider to advance late-stage translation research (T4TR) within the CHC setting.
