Strategic Network Annual Meeting 2024

September 24, 2024

Strategic Network Annual Meetings are closed meetings for funded awardees and designated oversight advisory committees who are invited to attend by the AHA. The purpose of these face-to-face meetings is to share results across the networks and identify and act on potential collaborative opportunities. A major component of the Centers will be their ability to implement a successful program for the interdisciplinary training of a new generation of scientists and to collaborate. All key Center personnel (Center Director / Coordinating Center PI, Training Director, Project PIs and Fellows/Trainees) and Oversight Advisory Members are expected to attend.
