ACC Young Scholars Program


 

ACC Young Scholars Program will be opening the application process in the Fall, 2021 for students. Designed for students interested in a career in science, the Young Scholars program pairs participants with an ACC member mentor for a year of research and education about cardiology and cardiovascular disease.

About the Young Scholars Program

The Young Scholars program is an initiative of ACC’s Academic Cardiology Member Section and local State Chapters that aims to provide promising young students with an introduction to the field of cardiology and strengthen the pipeline of talent for the future.

 

Apply here by 12/1/21

 

The program will kick off at ACC’s Annual Scientific Session (ACC.22) in Washington, DC on Saturday, April 2, 2022,* where students will have the chance to meet scientists from around the world, sit in on sessions, and explore the Expo floor to visit exhibitor booths. For a year following ACC.22, Young Scholars will also work virtually – through regularly scheduled webinars and Webex/Zoom calls – with a faculty mentor on a research project.

Program participants also have the opportunity to visit a local hospital or attend ACC State Chapter meetings throughout the year.*

Please contact Alexandra DiTommaso at aditommaso@acc.org with any questions.
