Two-Year Advanced Training in Congenital Interventional Cardiology

Two-Year Advanced Training in Congenital Interventional Cardiology

Children’s Hospital Colorado, in conjunction with the University of Colorado, School of Medicine, is pleased to offer a funded position for a two-year advanced training in congenital interventional cardiology.

We are looking for well- qualified candidates who have completed a fellowship in pediatric cardiology at an ACGME accredited program and will be board-eligible by the start of the 4th year. International applicants will be expected to provide evidence that their clinical skills are at an equivalent level to this.

The Interventional Cardiology group at Children's Hospital Colorado is a rapidly growing and busy group. We have three faculty physicians providing the full range of interventional procedures and techniques available. This extends from complex neonatal intervention to congenital and structural interventions in young adults.

We currently perform approximately 1,000 cardiac catheterizations per year including EP studies. We have a strong link with the wider adult congenital and structural programs which may allow experience in those fields where appropriate for the fellows individual training needs.

We also have a dedicated 3D imaging program for the cardiac catheterization laboratory with multiple 3D printers and extended reality capabilities. We have a well-developed wet lab for bench testing and device design and testing.

The main objectives of this job are: 

  • To develop subspecialty skills in congenital interventional cardiology.
  • To provide clinical support, together with other fellows, to the pediatric cardiology faculty.
  • To take an active part in postgraduate multidisciplinary teaching and training.
  • To contribute to the management of the clinical service and service development.
  • To develop an interest in research which focuses on interventional practice and develop links within the interventional community to allow career advancement.

We have trained advanced fellows in congenital interventional cardiology every year for over a decade. While all fellows will gain extensive experience in performance and interpretation of cardiac catheterization, our cardiac cath fellowship is aimed at producing a faculty level candidate capable of applying for positions in academic institutions anywhere in the world. Our cardiac cath fellows will also gain extensive experience in research, with the expectation to complete several first-authored manuscripts by the end of the two year program.

Applications for the Advanced fellowship on congenital interventional cardiology will require:

  • A copy of your curriculum vitae
  • At least three letters of reference
  • A personal statement highlighting why you wish to become an Interventional congenital cardiology Fellow at Children’s Hospital Colorado.

If you are not a USA medical graduate, include a copy of your ECFMG certificate. For candidates that require a U.S. visa, only J1 visas are offered and keep in mind that we offer a 2-year program only. Incomplete or late applications will not be considered. It is your responsibility to ensure all required information has been received.

All applications should be submitted by August 31, 2025.

Please contact Marissa Bautista Magallanes, administrative services coordinator, for any questions you may have at 720-777-3379 or Marissa.BautistaMagallanes@childrenscolorado.org
