PRIDE-CVD

Program Overview

The Summer Institute Program (PRIDE-CVD) is a career advancement opportunity sponsored by the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI) through a variety of Summer Institutes.

These mentored research programs will address the difficulties experienced by junior investigators in establishing independent research programs and negotiating through the academic ranks. The primary outcome of this program is to increase the number of scientists and research-oriented faculty who are interested in cardiovascular health disparities to successfully compete for external funding for scientific research in the biomedical and behavioral sciences studying heart, lung, blood, and sleep (HLBS) disorders.
