Function/Duties of Position
The appointee shall provide services as assigned by the supervisor in furtherance of the university’s missions and goals of teaching, research, patient care, outreach and public service. They will be joining a dynamic Center that focuses on a multidisciplinary approach to cardiovascular risk reduction through both collaboration with basic scientists and state-of-the art therapeutics. Training in the physiology and therapeutics of lipids, glucose metabolism, and inflammation preferred (such as a fellowship in Preventive Cardiology or Cardiometabolic Medicine). Obesity medicine principles and therapeutics are commonly employed by our group and prospective candidates will be expected to acquire these skills.
Clinical: Majority of your time will be spent clinically in Preventive Cardiology. The general clinical duties will include ambulatory clinics, approximately 6 weeks (generally 2 weeks each rotation) serving as an attending physician on the inpatient cardiology services (CCU or consult), as well as supporting non-invasive imaging, including ECHO, CT and MRI imaging, with a focus on patients with non-invasive subclinical atherosclerosis. Serving as an attending in our outreach programs may also be required depending on availability and the divisional needs. Providers are also expected to take a fair share of call.
Research: We expect providers in this role will be involved in clinical studies in collaboration with colleagues in the section, and will work to develop a portfolio of clinical research activities funded from external sources. Additional non-clinical time will be provided commensurate with funding to support that effort.
Education: As teaching is an important portion of the cardiology mission you will be responsible for the teaching of medical students, residents and fellows.
Required Qualifications
- Must be licensed MD/DO
- Active DEA Certification
