The Center's strategic directions include expanding the critical mass of researchers with expertise in ECG and physiologic monitoring, further optimizing the clinical data stewarded by the Center, and significantly impacting healthcare delivery in acute care settings.

Faculty in the In-Residence series conduct research, advance significant scholarship, engage in teaching and mentoring, maintain professional competence, and participate in university service. Faculty in the Adjunct series focus primarily on research, with negotiated teaching and service activities.
