A major contributor to the enhancement of a scholarly attitude is active participation in one or more research projects, ideally followed by presentation of the work at a national meeting and publication of a paper in a peer-reviewed journal.
Since July 2012, when our program became ACGME accredited, our fellows have published peer-reviewed journal articles and have presented numerous abstracts, posters, and oral presentations at local, regional, national and international meetings such as the American Heart Association (AHA), Heart Failure Society of America (HFSA) and the International Society for Heart and Lung Transplantation (ISHLT).
