Description
Edwards Lifesciences supports programs that advance clinical knowledge, scientific exchange, and medical education in structural heart disease and critical care monitoring. Its Educational Grant Portal organizes support around transcatheter heart valve therapies, surgical structural heart therapies, and critical care and surgical recovery. Eligible activities include independent congresses, conferences, symposia, and other educational programs.
Programs may promote scientific knowledge, medical advancement, effective healthcare delivery, patient or public education, or the education of medical students, residents, and fellows. Edwards prefers CME-accredited programs but also considers independently controlled, non-accredited education for healthcare providers in its areas of interest. Medical Affairs Departments and grant review committees assess requests on program merits, rather than as an inducement to advance Edwards’ commercial interests.
