The Heart Research Alliance is passionate about patient-centered research that answers questions important to patients and involves them as partners throughout the entire research process.
Patient Centered Research
Through years of actively supporting researchers and patient innovators who embrace this approach, we’ve seen how these meaningful partnerships can lead to higher-impact research, better science, and outcomes that have increased relevance to patient communities.
Our Network
Housed at the University of California, San Francisco, the Heart Research Alliance is a collaborative network of patients, researchers, and advocacy organizations supporting each other and the larger cardiovascular research field in creating high-impact patient-centered research.
Making An Impact
We have developed and leveraged innovative tools and resources for researchers and patients to meaningfully partner and engage across all stages of research—planning, implementation, and dissemination.
“Our vision is that patient-centered research becomes the norm, rather than the exception, in the cardiovascular field and beyond. ”
