ACC's NCDR is calling for research proposals for consideration for NCDR funding. Proposals should include hypothesis-driven research based upon secondary analysis of NCDR data, with the intent to develop manuscripts for peer-reviewed publication. The NCDR leverages audit-validated registry data – including patient risk factors and outcomes, procedure and treatment trends, diversity, health equity and inclusion, guideline adherence, and more – to support the expansion of scientific knowledge that drives high-quality care and improves cardiovascular health. Submit your proposal by Feb. 2.

Plus, early career investigators looking for an opportunity to collaborate with a more senior author can apply to ACC's new NCDR Research Mentorship Program. Email ncdrresearch@acc.org to learn more about the program and get started.
