In Nebraska during the past five years (2007-2011) the American Heart Association funded over $4 million in new research:

• 7 new research studies at University of Nebraska, Lincoln at a cost of $1,272,808
• 26 new research studies at University of Nebraska, Omaha at a cost of $2,781,996

Nationwide, we invest almost $123 million a year ($3.3 billion since 1949) in heart and stroke research that has led to recent breakthroughs such as clot-busting drugs and drug-eluting stents. Healthcare providers learn about medical advances and new treatment guidelines though our journals, conferences and online courses.
