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, senior authors looking for opportunities to mentor early career investigators can apply to ACC's new NCDR Research Mentorship Program. Email ncdrresearch@acc.org to learn more about the program and get started.
