The NHLBI and several of the world’s leading cardiovascular research funders are participating in a global partnership to advance heart and vascular health. The Global Cardiovascular Research Funders Forum (GCRFF) is a coalition of major international cardiovascular research funders whose aim is to improve cardiovascular health worldwide by catalyzing, supporting, and promoting transformational international research efforts in heart, stroke, and circulatory diseases. The GCRFF works to identify research gaps, coordinate multinational clinical trials, share data, and develop strategic research initiatives.
The GCRFF aims to accelerate the pace of progress in the cardiovascular field by creating opportunities for international coordination and collaboration between world-leading researchers and organizations.
Currently, the GCRFF is focused on developing activity across three workstreams. Learn more about each workstream below:
