A thread of some great health policy and health services research from @CAHSPER_IPH at @AcademyHealth #ARM24! @WUSTL will be starting a school of public health in 2026, with recently appointed dean @sandrogalea, so it's an exciting time of growth for policy and HSR at WashU.

The thread below from @kardiologykazi beautifully sums up two major projects from @American_Heart on cardiovascular disease and stroke - will take a focus on public health, prevention, and social risk to bend these curves back in the right direction!
Two @American_Heart Presidential Advisories released today project the future burden of #heartdisease and #stroke in the US – and the numbers are truly astounding @CircAHA What will cardiovascular disease look like in 2050? And how much will it cost? https://t.co/IP6wGjTgI2 🧵
