YALE ADVANCED FELLOWSHIP IN PULMONARY VASCULAR DISEASE: 2026-2027

Yale School of Medicine
New Haven, CT

 

We are now accepting applications for the Yale Fellowship in Pulmonary Vascular Disease for the 2026-2027 cycle. We will be accepting applications through August 2025.

Overview

The Yale Advanced Fellowship in Pulmonary Vascular Disease is a one-year clinical fellowship with the goal to prepare fellows to practice as experts in the care of the complex interactions between the pulmonary and cardiovascular systems that result in right heart dysfunction and failure. Our training program focuses on the evaluation and management of patients with diseases of the right heart system including pulmonary vascular disease, congenital heart disease, and end stage lung disease. Our overall program provides trainees with several unique clinical opportunities that are not readily available in most centers across the country and provides a more in-depth and focused training experience than what is provided in general pulmonary and critical care and cardiology training programs.

Objectives and Curriculum

Our curriculum is structured to maximize a trainee’s responsibilities while gaining competency in evaluating and treating pulmonary vascular disease and right heart failure. This includes:

  • Inpatient Rotations
    • Adult Congenital Heart Disease
    • Pulmonary Vascular Disease Consult Service
    • Advanced Heart Failure
    • Cardiac Anesthesia (including Pulmonary Thromboendarterectomy)
  • Ambulatory Medicine
    • Longitudinal clinic focused on pulmonary vascular disease, post-pulmonary embolism care, and unexplained dyspnea
    • Advanced Heart Failure and Adult Congenital Heart Disease sub-specialty clinics
    • Electives available to rotate in the Benign Hematology and Scleroderma Programs
  • Imaging
    • Transthoracic and transesophageal echocardiogram
    • Nuclear cardiology (SPECT/PET)
    • Cardiac MRI
  • Right Heart Catheterization
    • Vasodilator Testing
    • Pulmonary angiograms
    • Balloon pulmonary angioplasty (BPA)
  • Invasive Cardiopulmonary Exercise Test

Research Opportunities

After completing the one-year clinical fellowship, fellows have an option of completing a second year with a focus on research. Faculty will assist in support for additional research training and career development. Potential research opportunities span basic science, translational research, and clinical research within cardiopulmonary physiology and pulmonary vascular disease.

Eligibility requirements

Applications are invited from physicians who have completed an ACGME-accredited fellowship in either pulmonary and critical care medicine or cardiovascular medicine.
