Heart Center Research Day

The 2026 Heart Center Research Day aims to update cardiology members and partners on new research as it relates to the care of pediatric patients with various cardiology related issues and the evolving role of cardiologists in the health care system. The event will feature expert physicians, clinical educators, APPs and senior research scientists. In addition, scientific posters will be presented by trainees and research associates.

Throughout this in-person course, participants will engage in a comprehensive examination, analysis, and discourse on the latest research in the field of cardiology within our department. The primary objective is to foster collaborative research efforts, devise strategies to effectively involve others in actions and behaviors geared towards accomplishing research objectives and goals, and pinpoint subject matter experts whose expertise can significantly contribute to advancing the attendees’ work.
