Unit: School of Medicine
Department: Internal Medicine
Mission of the Unit/Department:
Today, early career scientists in multi-disciplinary translational cardiovascular research are needed to improve diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of cardiovascular disease (CVD). CVD burden has been rising for decades in most countries and the age-standardized rate of CVD has also risen in locations where it had been previously declining (including central Virginia and many other regions in the United States). Concurrently, the CVD workforce in the United States has been shrinking—including MD and PhD investigators who are trained in multidisciplinary CVD research and how to pursue solutions that would reduce the national and global CVD burden. The goals of the Division of Cardiology and the Pauley Heart Center are thus to attract and train a diverse cohort of outstanding academic scientists in multidisciplinary translational CV research, and build a robust diversified training infrastructure to increase the number of scientists trained to conduct research to advance the treatment and prevention of CVD.
Duties & Responsibilities:
The Pauley Heart Center in concert with the Department of Internal Medicine, Division of Cardiology are seeking extramurally-funded, accomplished, early-career investigators to pursue funded research opportunities for the purpose of reducing the burden of CV disease.
