The OHSU School of Medicine Knight Cardiovascular Institute (KCVI) launched a fellowship program in July, called Training in Translational Science and Cardiovascular Research. With five years of new T32 funding from the National Institute of Heart, Lung and Blood, the program will accept three fellows each year for two years of training. Applications are due Oct. 30.
The OHSU Office of Research and Innovation is seeking an associate vice president for basic research. At 0.2 FTE, this position would report to Chief Research Officer Peter Barr-Gillespie, serving as an advisor on basic science research and as scientific leader for the University Shared Resources program. The full position description can be found at the link above. Apply by Friday, Oct. 6.
The Executive Leadership in Academic Medicine (ELAM) is a well-established, 1-year fellowship that prepares senior female faculty to take on leadership roles in academic medicine, dentistry and public health. The newer Executive Leadership in Health Care (ELH) program is similar, but designed for those interested in health care operations. Applications are being accepted for the 2024-2025 class.
