Vermont Center for Cardiovascular and Brain Health

The Vermont Center for Cardiovascular and Brain Health (VCCBH) is an NIH funded Center of Biomedical Research Excellence (COBRE) that provides a platform to build sustainable research programs built on the exceptional potential of early career faculty.  We are studying the vital health problems facing society: cardiovascular disease, stroke and cognitive impairment.

Co-Director Corner

We are moving into our second year of NIH funding with great momentum, including the launch of this website! Our funded early career faculty are publishing in major journals like JCI, PNAS, and Journal of NeuroEngineering and Rehabilitation on topics ranging from control of cerebral blood flow to use of wearable technology to monitor patients recovering from stroke. We have a lineup of speakers slated for our Monthly Conference and Journal Clubs, and planning is underway for our Annual Symposium June 2-3, 2022.  We encourage UVM junior faculty to watch for our call for applications for our $200,000 Early Career Pilot Grant Award.

Please let us know if you have any questions and we wish you all a great fall semester.
