Young @ Heart provides a professional network for career development with an overall mission to secure the future of cardiovascular excellence in the Netherlands.

Y@H is characterized by passion and enthusiasm for cardiovascular research, in the broadest sense of the word. Activities are:

1. Organizing network events where interaction between young scientists and established professionals in science, business and (semi)government is the central theme.
2. Providing opportunities for developing soft skills relevant to science
3. Issue calls for competitive research grants and fellowships for talented young scientists.

In 2020, Y@H was adopted by the Talent pillar of our umbrella organisation Dutch CardioVascular Alliance (DCVA). This way the program is integrated in a broader cardiovascular talent policy including the DCVA leadership program.
