Center for Populations Studies

The NHLBI Center for Population Studies formulates a global view of the etiology, natural history, and time-period trends in heart, lung, blood, and sleep disorders. The Center performs collaborative studies of heart, lung, blood and sleep disorders, and conducts state-of-the-art research of these conditions with attention to early onset of these disorders as well as genetic susceptibility. In addition, the Center has launched a systems medicine project known as the SABRe CVD Initiative (Systems Approach to Biomarker Research in Cardiovascular Disease) in which researchers will obtain metabolomic, proteomic, gene expression, and microRNA data on thousands of study participants in an effort to identify molecular signatures of disease phenotypes in the population setting.
