To
advance cardiovascular medicine by developing an internationally recognized
center of excellence for research in cardiovascular science.

To
create a cutting-edge research environment that fosters innovation
and a synergistic interchange across traditional departmental and
disciplinary boundaries.

To
play a leadership role in generating the knowledge and innovative
approaches necessary to ameliorate the problem of ethnic disparities
in the burden of cardiovascular disease
-
To
serve as leaders, role models and mentors in nurturing the development
of the next generation of leaders in biomedical research with a particular
focus on enhancing the ethnic and gender diversity of the community
of research scientists.
