The University of Houston is now designated as a Vanguard Center for the Jackson Heart Study, the largest epidemiologic study of cardiovascular health among African Americans.

Jackson Heart Study data and other publicly available and limited datasets will be housed in the new Population Health Data Repository. These data sets are available for research projects conducted by UH students and faculty.

Requests for access can be emailed to Marino Bruce, Ph.D., director of the UH Population Health Collaboratories at mabruce@central.uh.edu.
