  • Academic Careers in Cardiovascular Medicine
    Circulation, 2009
    Co-Authors: Valentin Fuster, Sarina Van Der Zee, Sammy Elmariah, Robert O Bonow
    Abstract:

    With aging of the US population and continued success in prolonging survival of patients with Cardiovascular disease, the prevalence of Cardiovascular disease will increase exponentially in the next several decades.1 The anticipated supply of Cardiovascular specialists will be insufficient to meet the demands of this increasing disease burden. A shortage already exists of cardiologists as a whole, and this shortage has translated to an even greater undersupply of academic Cardiovascular specialists as fewer and fewer physicians who enter the field pursue academic positions. Prolonged training periods, expanding debt burdens, increasing discrepancies between salaries in academic and private practice positions, and a perceived lack of funding for research continue to push cardiologists into the private sector. The Cardiovascular clinician-scientist is an endangered species. So the question arises: How do we combat these real and perceived threats and increase the number of young cardiologists choosing careers in academic Cardiovascular Medicine? The purpose of this series of articles in Circulation is to provide trainees and new faculty with a practical guide to launching a successful research career in Cardiovascular Medicine across the spectrum of Cardiovascular specialties and across the strata of scientific investigation. The primer will provide advice for choosing a mentor; selecting a research project; identifying funding opportunities; selecting a research career pathway among the many opportunities in basic, clinical, epidemiologic, outcomes, and translational research; writing a grant; publishing a paper; finding a job; and making the transition from fellow to faculty. In addition, issues on ethics in Cardiovascular research and specific considerations for international trainees are included. Our aim is to provide new investigators with many of the tools they will need to make informed choices about entering academic Cardiovascular Medicine and to make the initial career stages as successful as possible. Cardiovascular Medicine is a specialty defined by research …

  • accf 2008 recommendations for training in adult Cardiovascular Medicine core cardiology training cocats 3 revision of the 2002 cocats training statement
    Journal of the American College of Cardiology, 2008
    Co-Authors: George A Beller, Robert O Bonow, Valentin Fuster
    Abstract:

    In 1995, recommendations for training in adult Cardiovascular Medicine were published in the Journal of the American College of Cardiology as a consensus statement emanating from the Core Cardiology Training Symposium (COCATS) held at Heart House in Bethesda, Maryland, in June 1994 ([1][1]). Since

  • A new partnership between the World Heart Federation and Nature Clinical Practice Cardiovascular Medicine
    Nature Clinical Practice Cardiovascular Medicine, 2006

  • Where am I going? The future of academic Cardiovascular Medicine.
    Journal of the American College of Cardiology, 2005
    Co-Authors: Valentin Fuster
    Abstract:

    In the last three decades, the U.S. life expectancy has been prolonged by about one or two years each decade due to advances in Cardiovascular Medicine. This improvement is the result of the development of better therapies rather than Cardiovascular disease (CVD) prevention. Despite this improvement

  • 2019 Update in perioperative Cardiovascular Medicine.
    Cleveland Clinic journal of medicine, 2019
    Co-Authors: Steven L. Cohn, Paul J. Grant, Barbara Slawski
    Abstract:

    We performed a MEDLINE search and found 6 studies published February 2018 through January 2019 that should influence perioperative Cardiovascular Medicine, specifically in preoperative cardiac risk assessment, perioperative medication management, and postoperative cardiac complications.

  • Perioperative Cardiovascular Medicine: 5 questions for 2018
    Cleveland Clinic journal of medicine, 2018
    Co-Authors: Kunjam Modha, Paul J. Grant, Barbara Slawski, Kay M. Johnson, Ethan F. Kuperman, Kurt Pfeifer, Steven L. Cohn
    Abstract:

    A MEDLINE search was performed from January 2017 to February 2018, and articles were selected for this update based on their significant influence on the practice of perioperative Cardiovascular Medicine.

  • Stem Cells in Cardiovascular Medicine: the Road to Regenerative Therapies
    Current cardiology reports, 2017
    Co-Authors: Christopher W. Anderson, Nicole Boardman, Jiesi Luo, Jinkyu Park, Yibing Qyang
    Abstract:

    Purpose of Review The purpose of this review is to provide a broad overview of current trends in stem cell research and its applications in Cardiovascular Medicine. Researches on different stem cell sources, their inherent characteristics, and the limitations they have in medical applications are discussed. Additionally, uses of stem cells for both modeling and treating Cardiovascular disease are discussed, taking note of the obstacles these engineered interventions must overcome to be clinically viable.

Additionally, uses of stem cells for both modeling and treating Cardiovascular disease are discussed, taking note of the obstacles these engineered interventions must overcome to be clinically viable. Recent Findings Tissue engineering aims to replace dysfunctional tissues with engineered constructs. Stem cell technologies have been a great enabling factor in working toward this goal. Summary Many tissue-engineered products are in development that utilize stem cell technology. Although promising, some refinement must be made to these constructs with respect to safety and functionality. A deeper understanding of basic differentiation and tissue developmental mechanisms is required to allow these engineered tissues to be translated into the clinic.

  • Current genomics in Cardiovascular Medicine.
    Current genomics, 2012
    Co-Authors: Vinit Sawhney, Scott Brouilette, Robert Schilling, Dominic Abrams, Benjamin O'brien
    Abstract:

    Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is a heterogeneous, complex trait that has a major impact on human morbidity and mortality. Common genetic variation may predispose to common forms of CVD in the community, and rare genetic conditions provide unique pathogenetic insights into these diseases. With the advent of the Human Genome Project and the genomic era, new tools and methodologies have revolutionised the field of genetic research in Cardiovascular Medicine. In this review, we describe the rationale for the current emphasis on large-scale genomic studies, elaborate on genome wide association studies and summarise the impact of genomics on clinical Cardiovascular Medicine and how this may eventually lead to new therapeutics and personalised Medicine.
