About the Aab CVRI

The University of Rochester Medical Center opened the Aab CVRI in 2007 bringing together scientists, students and technicians under one research institute.  Research laboratories in the CVRI conduct research with the goal of furthering the understanding of heart and vascular disease.  All members of the CVRI value the principles of our medical center that seek to “build, recruit, nurture, exemplify, and engage in the work of being anti-racist”.  Major research programs currently in the CVRI include cardiac fibrosis and heart failure, thrombosis, vascular and neurovascular inflammation.
