Saving Lives through Research
Heineman-Robicsek Foundation, Inc. originally began as a research center located on the campus of Carolinas Medical Center, committed to advancing global medical research. For fifty years, we pursued a variety of local and international research and humanitarian projects. Our team conducted pioneering research in cardiovascular surgery and held the distinction as a research center of excellence, resulting in numerous major discoveries. Today, backed by our supportive partners, doctors continue to study and fund new initiatives. Their work saves thousands.
