Dr. Adam Bress is a Professor of Population Health Sciences with tenure at the University of Utah School of Medicine, Director of the IMPACT Health Services Research (HSR) Program, and an Investigator at the VA Salt Lake City Health Care System. A formally trained cardiovascular clinical pharmacist and population health scientist, he works at the intersection of clinical pharmacotherapy, advanced analytic methods, and population health. His research integrates pharmacoepidemiology, health economics, causal inference, and predictive modeling to improve the use, safety, and effectiveness of medications for preventing cardiovascular and neurodegenerative diseases.

Dr. Bress leads a long-standing, continuously funded NIH research program focused on hypertension treatment, lipid management, and the prevention of cardiovascular disease and dementia. His work includes causal inference studies, target trial emulations, population simulations, economic evaluations, and mechanistic research evaluating how antihypertensive drug classes influence brain health. He is MPI of a $21 million NIH grant generating the first longitudinal biomarker data on the cognitive effects of intensive blood pressure control by baseline Alzheimer's disease pathology. His research has shaped national hypertension guidelines, informed NIH scientific priorities, and guided health system policy. He has authored more than 150 peer-reviewed publications, including papers in the New England Journal of Medicine, Circulation, the Journal of the American College of Cardiology, JAMA Cardiology, and JAMA Network Open.

Nationally, Dr. Bress chaired an American Heart Association scientific statement on inpatient hypertension management, served on the 2025 US Hypertension Guideline Writing Committee, and contributed to a National Academy of Medicine consensus study evaluating medication-related mortality among veterans. He holds longstanding leadership roles in the SPRINT Research Group and contributes to multiple NIH-funded cardiovascular, pharmacoepidemiology, and aging research networks. Through these roles, he helps shape national policy, guideline development, and federal research priorities.

As Director of the IMPACT HSR Program, Dr. Bress leads institution-wide efforts to strengthen late-translational research, build cross-disciplinary research community, expand faculty development infrastructure, and enhance the success of clinician-investigators and early-stage faculty. He is known for creating systems that support collaborative science, faculty growth, and high-performing research teams.

A dedicated mentor and leadership developer, Dr. Bress integrates evidence-based mentorship, human-centered development, and coaching-informed practice into his work with trainees and faculty. He is a Hudson Institute–trained leadership coach and holds an NIA K24 award for mentoring. He has trained more than 30 early-stage investigators, and his mentees have secured NIH career development awards, academic faculty positions, and first-author publications in top-tier journals. He also co-leads a T32 program in pediatric clinical pharmacology with Dr. Kevin Watt.

Dr. Bress received his Doctor of Pharmacy degree from the University of Maryland and a Master of Science in Clinical and Translational Science from the University of Illinois Chicago. He completed residency training at Yale–New Haven Hospital and the University of Illinois Chicago, followed by a postdoctoral fellowship in cardiovascular pharmacogenomics.

Research Statement

I am a cardiovascular clinical pharmacist with training in epidemiology and pharmacogenetics. We focus on disparities in prevention and treatment of cardiovascular disease with a focus on hypertension and antihypertensive medication use. Using pharmacoepidemiology and pharmacogenetics, we try to better understand causes of racial differences in medication responses and outcomes. We apply these findings to understand the population-level impact, generalizability, and cost-effectiveness in diverse groups.
