Trainees achieving sufficient clinical progress will be eligible for 20% research time to develop a funding proposal towards a PhD, with guidance from one of our world-leading cardiologists (chosen by the trainee). This post is intended to attract candidates wishing to utilise the Portfolio Pathway (previously called CESR) to acquire specialist registration in Cardiology, which enables them to be geographically stable at a single world-class academic health sciences centre, while in parallel developing international-grade expertise in a subspeciality through a prestigious externally funded PhD and opportunities to exploit it further in dedicated postdoctoral research time.
The Fellow will initially divide their time between training in:
- echocardiography (10%)
- angiography (10%)
- electrophysiology/devices procedures (5%)
- acute cardiology care (40%)
- chronic cardiology care (15%)
- general internal medicine (20%)
As the Fellow progresses, this distribution will change to accommodate their training needs and their subspeciality interest. Each year, if the clinical progress meets expectations, the trainee will receive up to 20% dedicated research time to develop/revise/resubmit prestigious externally funded PhD proposals.
