The Smith Center offers mentorship and fellowship training opportunities for researchers interested in studying cardiovascular outcomes. Mentees work with us at different stages in their education or professional training. The fellowship provides early career cardiologists with an opportunity to develop the expertise and skills needed to advance their portfolio in outcomes research. Many of our mentees continue to work collaboratively with our investigators, or have joined us as faculty.
