Collaborating

Speed matters. That's why we bring the best minds together to accelerate results.  Vascular Cures has launched the first national vascular research consortium, the Vascular Cures Research Network.

 

Innovating

Results matter. We’re leaders in finding new ways to predict, treat and prevent vascular disease. Our newest program brings the power of genomics to find new ways to prevent death and disability. Our research makes a difference to people every day.

 

Saving Lives

People matter. Vascular disease can happen to anyone, at any age, at any time.  Nicole was a college student when she suddenly couldn’t walk. She and other patients tell their stories.

 

National Leader Joins Vascular Cures

Dr. Jodi Black, a Deputy Director of the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI) of the National Institutes of Health, has joined our Scientific Advisory Board, demonstrating the national impact of the Vascular Cures Research Network. Find out more.


 

Latest Research Finding

Genetic Marker Identified that May Predict PAD Treatment Failures

Hundreds of thousands of procedures are performed each year in the U.S. to improve leg circulation in patients suffering from peripheral artery disease (PAD), yet up to half of these fail within a few years due to excessive scarring. Members of Vascular Cures Research Network – Michael S. Conte, MD and Alexander Clowes, MD – discovered that the gene p27 may be involved. Find out more.
