Now accepting applications for postdoctoral positions for
research in Vascular Medicine
The NIH funded K12 Vascular Medicine Program intends to train leaders in academic vascular medicine. Individuals that complete this program will have proficiency in the care of patients with vascular disease. They will be leaders in translational vascular research, bringing new insights, therapies, devices, and diagnostics to vascular care.
Trainees will achieve proficiency in the inpatient and outpatient vascular practice, and non-invasive vascular diagnostic laboratory. They will become familiar with catheter-based endovascular intervention, vascular surgery, vascular pathology, and other related disciplines. During their training, they will participate in mentored clinical research, and have formal didactics in clinical protocol design, biostatistics, data management, as well as legal, ethical, and regulatory issues that attend clinical research.
The Program consists of....
- 1 year of clinical training
- 2 years of clinical research with experienced mentor
- Trainees will obtain a Masters degree in epidemiology
- Trainees will be eligible for certification in General Vascular Medicine by the ABVM
