In 2021, NYU Langone Health was selected by the National Institutes of Health (NIH) to be the Clinical Science Core of the Researching COVID to Enhance Recovery (RECOVER) Initiative.[93] RECOVER is a project aimed at understanding the long-term effects of COVID-19 to help develop new approaches to diagnosis and treatment.[94] As part of the research, NYU Langone received a parent award of more than $450 million. The institution is charged with leading and integrating the research activities of 35 institutions and 100 researchers nationwide, to which it will make sub-awards.[93] RECOVER will study adults, children, and electronic health records to examine how many people are affected by COVID in the long term, which treatments contribute to recovery, and why some patients are vulnerable to lingering symptoms while others are not.
