The JHS is the largest single-site longitudinal, population-based, cohort study of 5,302 persons initiated in the fall of 2000 to prospectively investigate the determinants of CVD among African Americans in the Jackson, MS metropolitan statistical area. The JHS investigates the various genotype and phenotype factors that affect high blood pressure, heart disease, strokes, diabetes and other important diseases in African Americans. The primary objective of the Jackson Heart Study is to investigate the causes of cardiovascular disease (CVD) in African Americans to learn how to best prevent this group of diseases in the future. More specific objectives include: 1. Identification of factors, which influence the development, and worsening of CVD in African Americans, with an emphasis on manifestations related to high blood pressure (such as remodeling of the left ventricle of the heart, coronary artery disease, heart failure, stroke and disorders affecting the blood vessels of the kidney). 2. Building research capabilities in minority institutions at the undergraduate and graduate level by developing partnerships between minority and majority institutions and enhancing participation of minority investigators in large-scale epidemiologic studies. 3. Attracting minority students to and preparing them for careers in health sciences.

A not-for-profit biomedical research institute whose main aim is to help defend human health and life. Research programs span from the molecular level to the whole human being, and the findings help build up the basis for developing new drugs, and making existing ones more effective. The main research headings are the battle against cancer, nervous and mental illnesses, cardiovascular and kidney diseases, rare diseases and the toxic effects of environmental contaminants, mother and child''''s health. The Institute is also involved in research on pain relief and drug addiction. Parallel to its biomedical investigations, the Mario Negri Institute runs training schemes for laboratory technicians and graduate researchers. It takes part in a range of initiatives to communicate information in biomedicine, on a general level and with the specific aims of improving health care practice, and encouraging more rational use of drugs. There are also research units in Bergamo, at Ranica - near Bergamo - and at Santa Maria Imbaro, near Chieti.

A commercial optical diagnostic company focused on providing clinicians with critical information to improve patient care. The Optical Renal Function Monitor (ORFM) is their first product platform and is focused on real-time, easy to use, and cost-effective monitoring of kidney function. Their non-invasive monitoring technology works in a similar fashion to pulse oximetry by using a light sensor placed on the skin. After the sensor has been placed, a proprietary biocompatible tracer is administered. The system can then monitor the patient''s real-time point-of-care kidney function. This information will allow for earlier detection of renal issues enabling clinicians to provide earlier, and hence more effective interventions. MediBeacon has created a research grade technique that is clinically applicable for real-time point-of-care Glomerular Filtration Rate measurement (mGFR). MediBeacon has invented a fluorescent tracer agent (MB-102) that is removed from the blood exclusively by the GFR mechanism of the kidneys. Together with their non-invasive detection device, this will deliver a real-time point-of-care measurement of GFR.
