Taking Collaborations to a Different Level
At UCLA our goal is to galvanize research at the interface of cardiovascular disease, metabolism and inflammation. Here is what makes us special
We have amazing team science:
Atherosclerosis Research Unit
At the Program Project Grant at Atherosclerosis Research Unit, the focus is on the artery wall metabolism as it relates to inflammation and cardiovascular diseases.
Cardiovascular Theme
We have a team of cardiovascular research scientists who are fully committed to clinical care, discovery science and engineering, community outreach and education.
Metabolism Theme
UCLA Metabolism Theme investigators and physicians have ideas and evidence about how metabolic processes can be reset in some disorders, potentially creating pathways for improved treatments and possible cures.
I3T Research Theme
UCLA faculty have developed best-in-class T-cell therapies for fighting and beating cancer and for world-leading transplant programs. They have uncovered and invented new ways to prevent and treat infection to meet the challenge of antibiotic resistance.
