| Course Description
The 2010 Fellows Career Development Forum is intended to introduce fellows to a broad range of cardiovascular topics, including basic science, risk factors, disease management, gender-based health care disparities and outcomes, cardiac imaging, electrophysiology and interventional cardiology. Fellow-specific content will also be included which focuses on training and workforce issues precipitated by healthcare reform, research presentations, career development curricula, and exclusive hands-on training opportunities on a variety of cardiovascular diagnostic and therapeutic modalities. Through a series of concurrent sessions, fellows will have real-time, hands-on experience with Industry representatives with the newest cardiovascular technologies and devices.
Program Information
The forum will offer cardiology fellows an opportunity to present their research in all facets of cardiovascular disease, including heart failure, atherosclerosis, hypertension and thrombosis and discuss their findings with cardiology faculty from around the country. Fellows will be invited to give a poster presentation of their work. Posters will be on display throughout the Exhibit Hall during the 2010 Cardiology Fiesta Symposium. Authors of the top three abstracts will receive a $1,500.00 travel grant towards future scientific meetings. For additional Abstract Submission details, click below.
