For Researchers
Our approach to research funding keeps single ventricle at its heart, with a sharp focus on single ventricle defects, biomarkers, sequelae, and related comorbidities.
Extraordinary leaps in science happen when the right people, ideas, and technology come together to solve complex problems. Our goal is to facilitate these connections, innovating along with a scientific community committed to solving single ventricle heart disease.
Through our programs, we aim to cultivate and accelerate outstanding science by developing foundational knowledge, building essential infrastructure and tools, and driving innovation in interventional approaches — all while working with our community and beyond.
Research Roadmap
Developed collaboratively with scientific leaders in the community, the single ventricle Research Roadmap is a living ten-year plan toward comprehensive, multidisciplinary, and programmatic solutions to understand and overcome single ventricle heart disease.
Comprised of four significant knowledge and infrastructure gaps slowing down progress in single ventricle research, the roadmap defines crucial research pathways for exploration and investment.
Research Award Programs
Funding outstanding research begins with a focus on people and projects. We offer funding opportunities to support academic and clinical investigators pursuing answers to critical scientific questions relevant to single ventricle heart disease. Our programs aim to foster outstanding science across disciplines, fields, and career stages — and provide resources for our awardees to succeed.
Foundational Resources
Foundational resources are required to ask and answer the most pressing questions in single ventricle science and care. We believe in the power of developing new open-access datasets to springboard the scientific and medical community forward, faster.
Scientific Community
Our Speaker Series and biannual Single Ventricle Investigator Meeting allow for diverse investigators to share knowledge, identify challenges, and exchange ideas to inspire innovative approaches to this complex disease.
