Healthcare Determinants
Scientific Questions Being Studied
To identify novel healthcare determinants to better identify and assess cardiovascular diseases and other common chronic diseases
Project Purpose(s)
- Disease Focused Research (cardiovascular diseases)
- Social / Behavioral
- Ancestry
Scientific Approaches
We plan to use genetic data, clinical data, and survey data to better understand how these variables impact cardiovascular disease.
Anticipated Findings
The relationship between cardiovascular diseases and novel health care determinants will better inform clinical choice in therapy, and make for more tailored approaches to medically complex diseases.
Demographic Categories of Interest
This study will not center on underrepresented populations.

Pulmonary Hypertension Research
Scientific Questions Being Studied
We hope to better understand the association between pulmonary hypertension, cardiovascular diseases, sleep disorders and inflammatory auto-immune disorders.
Project Purpose(s)
- Disease Focused Research (pulmonary hypertension)
- Ancestry
Scientific Approaches
We plan to use genetic data, clinical data, and survey data to better understand how these variables impact pulmonary hypertension.
Anticipated Findings
The relationship between pulmonary hypertension and other comorbidities will better inform clinical choice in therapy, and make for more tailored approaches to medically complex diseases.

Pulmonary Hypertension and Other Diseases
Scientific Questions Being Studied
This body of work aims to better understand the interaction of pulmonary hypertension with cardiovascular diseases, sleep disorders and autoimmune diseases.
Project Purpose(s)
- Disease Focused Research (pulmonary hypertension)
- Ancestry
Scientific Approaches
To address its aims, this study will utilize the genetic data, serologies and surveys that the participants provided in order to better understand how these parameters fluctuate during pulmonary hypertension.
Anticipated Findings
By better understanding the interaction of pulmonary hypertension with other diseases, more treatment options with fewer side effects would become possible.
