Post-Doctoral Clinical Research Fellowship for a NIH funded Cardiovascular research project.
Medicine-Cardiology | |
We are seeking a Post-Doctoral Clinical Research Fellow to assist with an exciting, NIH funded Cardiovascular research project that will include event adjudication with modern criteria for acute myocardial infarction (MI) subtypes (i.e., type 1 versus type 2 MI), as well as accounting for all non-ischemic myocardial injury events. Despite different prevalence, pathobiology, and prognosis, all NHLBI prospective cohorts adjudicate incident acute myocardial infarction (MI) as a singular entity, as opposed to etiologically distinct MI subtypes defined by the 4th Universal Definition of MI. By adjudicating specific MI phenotypes, and defining their epidemiology, this project will directly enable more precise risk prediction, discovery of novel pathobiology-specific risk factors, and allow for the development more targeted preventive strategies (i.e., anticoagulation for those at risk for type 1 versus type 2 MI). This position will include close collaboration with the Multi-ethnic Study of Atherosclerosis (MESA), a National Institutes of Health research cohort. |
