The Multi-Disciplinary Training Program in Cardiovascular Imaging at Stanford is funded by the National Institute of Biomedical Imaging and Bioengineering of the National Institutes of Health. The program is designed to train the next generation of cardiovascular imaging investigators by exposing them to three complementary areas: Clinical, Engineering, Molecular Imaging
The Mechanisms & Innovation in Vascular Disease program trains a total of six fellows over two years through the NIH T32 training grant "Mechanisms & Innovation in Vascular Disease" in the following areas:
Vascular Reactivity and Thrombosis
Vascular Regeneration and Development
Metabolic or Lifestyle Influences on Vascular Outcomes
Proteomic Markers and Genetic Determinants of Vascular Disease
Gender and Ethnicity Differences in Vascular Disease
CHIP T32 provides comprehensive, structured training for post MD, PhD or MD/PhD fellows in computational medicine that address several unmet needs outlined by the National Research Council, NHLBI, academia and industry.
Myocardial biologists at Stanford are found in diverse departments and divisions within the wider Stanford community and this provides a natural vehicle for multidisciplinary training across six complementary areas:
This research training fellowship trains four MD or PhD postdoctoral fellows for up to two years with a primary focus in of the following pulmonary research areas:
The core seminar program provides a modest structured, didactic experience. In addition, postdoctoral trainees are encouraged to take coursework in fields new to them to broaden their knowledge base in preparation for interdisciplinary research activities.
