MISSION
 
The mission of the Program on the Pharmacoepidemiology of Metabolic Diseases (PROMISE) is to advance the understanding of the treatments for cardio-metabolic-renal diseases in clinical practice, in order to inform medical prescribing and improve patient care.

WHAT WE DO & WHO WE ARE

We study utilization, safety, effectiveness, and cost-effectiveness of treatment strategies among patients with cardio-metabolic-renal diseases in clinical practice, through the use of cutting-edge epidemiologic and statistical methods, leveraging one of the nation’s largest data repository of longitudinal healthcare data to conduct pharmacoepidemiologic research in cardio-metabolic-renal diseases, including claims data for over 200 million lives, registries, and electronic health records
, and innovative linkage of different databases. ​PROMISE includes a multidisciplinary team with expertise in pharmacoepidemiology, statistics, endocrinology, nephrology, cardiology, and obesity medicine, and trains the next generation of researchers in pharmacoepidemiology of cardio-metabolic-renal diseases from around the world.
