Job Mart

The Division of Cardiology in the Department of Pediatrics at Stanford University seeks a board eligible or board-certified pediatric cardiologist to join the division of cardiology as Assistant or Associate Professor in the Clinician Educator line. The major criterion for appointment as a Clinician Educator is excellence in the overall mix of clinical care, teaching, administrative and/or scholarship appropriate to the programmatic need the individual is expected to fulfill.

Academic rank will be determined by the qualifications and experience of the successful candidate.

The Echocardiography Laboratory at Stanford Children’s Health has 11 faculty members who together are responsible for the performance and interpretation of approximately 12,000 pediatric echocardiograms (transthoracic, transesophageal, and fetal) per year both on the Stanford campus (Lucile Packard Children’s Hospital) and at affiliated clinical sites in the Bay Area. Cardiology is also involved in the performance and interpretation of cross-sectional cardiovascular imaging studies (cardiac MRI). In addition to training categorical fellows in the Division of Pediatric Cardiology, Laboratory-based faculty members also provide advanced clinical and clinical research training to advanced non-invasive imaging fellows. All faculty are actively engaged in clinical research and/or curriculum development.

Applications will be reviewed beginning November 2021 and accepted until the position is filled.
