Research Fellowship Program in Cardiovascular Disease Prevention

How to Apply

Appointments to the Fellowship are ordinarily made for the academic year, September to August. We are expecting to take applications this November 2023 for the fellowship year that starts in September 2024. Interviews are required and are conducted at Stanford during December and early January (we are not able to provide travel expenses but will try to accommodate existing travel plans; if you expect to be in the Stanford area, please include this information with your application). The selection process is complete by January/February; physician candidates may apply on the same schedule, with their appointment beginning in 18 months.

To apply for the fellowship, please use the on-line form, which needs to include:

  • Application Information
