We are seeking patients that have had a pre-COVID heart CT scan (Coronary Computed Tomography Angiography) that was performed at Columbia University Irving Medical Center/NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital before March of 2020. For this study, half of patients will be required to have had COVID-19 symptoms (e.g., fever, cough, shortness of breath) and would have…
The objective of the study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the JenaValve Pericardial TAVR system when treating patients with aortic regurgitation. Aortic Regurgitation is a condition that develops when the heart's aortic valve does close tightly, therefore the blood leaks back into the heart chamber. The JenaValve Pericardial TAVR system will…
The goal of this early feasibility study is to gain initial insight into the basic safety and performance of transluminal (through the blood vessels) implantation of the PASCAL System's implant (composed of man-made materials). We are trying to evaluate the safety and performance of the PASCAL System with Optimal Medical Therapy (OMT) (also known as…
Help us to better understand the long term effects of COVID. If you or your child has had COVID, or is feeling the long term effects of COVID, you might be able to help us understand more about it and treat it. Even if you or your child has never had COVID, you might be able to help. We are seeking volunteers who are under 25 to join the NIH RECOVER…
This is a research study for patients who have Tricuspid Regurgitation (TR), a condition that occurs when the three leaflets of the heart's tricuspid valve do not close properly causing blood to leak backward with each heartbeat. Since some of the blood leaks backward, the heart has to pump more blood with each beat to push the same amount of blood…
We want to assess the baseline and cumulative seroprevalence of SARS-CoV-2 using serological and molecular assays. We will also administer a survey. Findings from this study will inform; 1) our understanding of changing epidemiology of COVID-19; 2) use of serological assays and testing algorithms, and 3) approaches to managing psychosocial stress in the…
This is a prospective multicenter study whose purpose is to establish the safety and effectiveness of the Edwards SAPIEN 3 and SAPIEN 3 Ultra valves with Commander delivery system in patients with severe symptomatic calcific mitral valve disease with severe mitral annular calcification (which is a progressive loss of function of the mitral valve due to…
This is a study for people with symptoms of long COVID. We are looking for people over the age of 18 who are interested in participating in a study to understand whether a mindfulness meditation intervention can help improve symptoms of long COVID. Study participation lasts 6 months and is fully remote.
We are seeking volunteers who have been diagnosed with COVID-19 by a healthcare provider or by lab testing. We are also looking for volunteers who have never tested positive for COVID-19 and have not received a COVID-19 vaccine. The study, also known as C-PIC, will be looking at antibody levels and how long the virus remains in the body. We are also…
The purpose of this study to examine the long-term general psychological symptoms, and identify the predictors of these psychological symptoms. The sustained psychological toll of working in a high-stress environment can have downstream impacts on health.

Our research team at Columbia University is trying to understand the impact of COVID-19 on smell and taste (chemosensory) dysfunction among adult patients from the Greater New York City area. Current areas of study include: 1) Investigation of smell and taste recovery patterns among patients with COVID-19; 2) Studies on how recovery of smell and taste after…
We are looking for individuals over 18 years old who are interested in learning more about COVID-19 prevention research studies. We will ask you to complete a brief questionnaire to find out if you may be eligible for one of our studies. We can then schedule a phone call, teleconference, or in-person education visit so you can learn about the research we do…
