Three of COSEHC's Cardiovascular Centers of Excellence
have recently been awarded The Enhanced Dissemination and Utilization
Center Grant.
COSEHC is happy to announce that 3 of its COSEHC Cardiovascular
Centers of Excellence (20 Centers) have recently been awarded with
The Enhanced Dissemination and Utilization Center (EDUC) grant funded
by the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI) of the
National Institutes of Health (NIH). Only 12 centers in the nation
have received this special funding.
The goal of this NIH funding is to eliminate cardiovascular
disparities and improve health care in high-risk communities.
"These projects take what we have learned about
prevention, identification and treatment of cardiovascular disease
and apply that knowledge where it is most needed - in communities
with the highest heart disease and stroke death rates," said
NHLBI Director Claude Lenfant, MD.
