Program Description: Fellowship is a funded 2-year fellowship to highly motivated individuals. The program includes clinical training, didactic teaching, and an immersive research experience. The primary goal of this training program is to prepare trainees to become physician-scientists in cardio-oncology and cardio-immunology and to become future leaders in these emerging fields. All interested applicants need to have completed a cardiology fellowship to be considered eligible. However, individuals with exceptional research backgrounds will also be considered. All applicants must also have a strong research foundation. Funding will be provided from both philanthropic donations as well as an NIH T32 training grant. It is expected that fellows will compete for and obtain career development grants to start academic careers at the completion of the fellowship.

The clinical training of this fellowship provides a structured curriculum including weekly didactic sessions, clinical rotations, and cardio-oncology based research experience. Fellows rotate through the outpatient cardio-oncology, amyloid, and CHIP clinics as well as dedicated oncology clinics, which will expose them to the various aspects of oncology care. These dedicated oncology clinics will include breast cancer, prostate cancer, melanoma, leukemia/lymphoma, transplant, gastrointestinal, genitourinary, and radiation oncology clinics, as well as the early drug development and survivorship oncology clinical programs. This broad clinical experience is made possible by an integrated cardiovascular center and access to world-class academic faculty in oncology and cardiology. Close collaboration with various departments at UCSF allows for integration with other aspects of the cardiovascular division including heart failure, vascular medicine, cardiac imaging, arrhythmia, autonomic dysfunction, and genetics programs.
