2019 Go Red Goes STEM Presenting Sponsors:
Science is Why.
The American Heart Association’s Institute for Precision Cardiovascular Medicine will usher in the future of more precise medicine with better targeted and more effective treatments and prevention strategies.
Progress achieved through research has improved and extended millions of lives. But, many key questions remain unanswered. We are advancing groundbreaking new research which will unlock ways we can improve and save lives. We need scientists.
Technology is Why.
Innovations in computer science and science/medicine will lead to improvements in healthcare: better outcomes, lower costs, and increased engagement with patients.
The American Heart Association’s Center for Health Technology and Innovation brings together leading technology companies, industry experts and clinical thought leaders to advance innovation. We need innovation.
Engineering is Why.
Bringing together knowledge from many technical sources to develop new procedures or conduct research to solve clinical problems is critical to saving and improving lives.
Biomedical engineering combines engineering principles with medical and biological sciences to design and create equipment, devices, computer systems, and software used in healthcare. We need research.
Mathematics is Why.
To effectively answer where we are making the greatest impact, where our resources are optimally focused, and quantifiably measure the outcomes of our work, we must become a leader in evaluation, assessment, and modeling.
The American Heart Association’s Center for Health Metrics and Evaluation assesses and determines the gaps in data as well as trends in the social determinants of health, which will in turn help us to shape our programs and outreach. We need evaluation.
We Need You.
