Pioneering New Therapies for the Treatment of Heart Disease
CRF carries out its mission by following three basic principles:
Investigate
The Jack H. Skirball Center for Cardiovascular Research (SCCR) at CRF is a state-of-the-art facility dedicated to the investigation of novel concepts, treatments, and devices. Our team of interventionalists, surgeons, and pathologists guide early ideas and inventions through comprehensive research programs in order to introduce practical clinical therapies to patients.
Evaluate
CRF's Clinical Trials Center (CTC) plans and executes clinical investigations from first-in-man studies to large, multicenter international trials and provides expert, independent qualitative and quantitative analyses of clinical and imaging data.
Educate
CRF is committed to educating health care professionals and the public to ensure that the work of physicians and researchers is translated to improved care for patients with cardiovascular disease. With a worldwide reputation for excellence in training clinical practitioners in advanced techniques and innovations, CRF conducts more than 50 educational meetings, conferences, and teaching symposia annually including CRF’s annual scientific symposium, Transcatheter Cardiovascular Therapeutics (TCT).
CRF is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization.
