Welcome to the Council on Quality of Care and Outcomes Research (QCOR). I am privileged to be the incoming chair of QCOR. I am truly honored to step into this role after the outstanding leadership of Dr. Pam Peterson. She has provided direction in a time of change as we move past the pandemic and move the QCOR meetings to the fall. The council comprises outstanding investigators and clinicians from across AHA to work with others toward improving cardiovascular care.
