BUILDING THE FUTURE<br />
FROM THE HEART<br />
$100 MILLION CAMPAIGN<br />
The Peter Munk Cardiac Centre is advancing cardiovascular care in innovative new<br />
directions, while continuing to deliver the best patient outcomes in the world.<br />
The evolution of the PMCC is focused on the development of human resources and<br />
the development and evaluation of new, innovative therapies. Building the Future<br />
of the PMCC will realize the creation of Centres of Excellence in: valvular Heart<br />
Disease, Aortic Disease, Molecular Medicine, Heart Rhythm Disease, Heart Function<br />
and Multinational Clinical Trials. These Centres, along with the investment in<br />
Fellowships and Innovation, will support the efforts to grow, differentiate and<br />
impact cardiac care worldwide.<br />
With the help of donors, the Peter Munk Cardiac Centre will lead the way in<br />
these new frontiers of cardiovascular patient care and in the dissemination of<br />
this knowledge worldwide.<br />
