Scholars Program
The Heart Failure Research Institute at NewYork-Presbyterian is pleased to offer an annual Scholars Program for rising researchers in the field. This one-year program is geared toward individuals interested in conducting heart failure research under the guidance of an expert.
We will select up to two scholars—one Snyder & Granader Family Cardiomyopathy Scholar and one Peter and Margaret Sullivan Cardiomyopathy & Advanced Heart Failure Scholar—for each cycle. Scholars will be hired by NewYork-Presbyterian for the duration of their program and will partner closely with colleagues at both Columbia University Irving Medical Center and Weill Cornell Medicine.
