CardieX Research Initiative

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

1Why are you launching the CardieX Arterial Research Initiative?
We are launching the CardieX Arterial Research Initiative, a search to identify breakthrough research in arterial stiffness and vascular health, to further our vision to the society’s understanding relating to the world’s most common health disorders including hypertension, CVD, Alzheimer’s disease, chronic kidney disease (CKD), and other major vascular health conditions. By identifying and supporting innovative research, we continue our commitment to driving the field of arterial health forward and improving patient outcomes.
