Cardiovascular Disease Epidemiology Training Program

Established in 1975, the Cardiovascular Disease Epidemiology Training Program focuses on interdisciplinary training on the epidemiology of the leading cause of death in the United States. The program integrates knowledge on all aspects of cardiovascular disease: biology, behavior, treatment and prevention. Training emphasizes active participation in research and translational epidemiology using a collaborative approach, which is enhanced by the close relationships between the Department of Epidemiology and the clinical departments of the Johns Hopkins School of Medicine at the Johns Hopkins Hospital. A number of large ongoing cohort studies and clinical trials provide a rich environment for the conduct of research. The main didactic course focuses on risk factors for cardiovascular disease and strategies for prevention. Seminar-style courses offer a more in-depth understanding of disease pathophysiology and clinical management.

The Department of Epidemiology at the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health is actively recruiting pre- and post-doctoral candidates for our Cardiovascular Epidemiology Training Program. We specifically have a several open post-doctoral positions. We are interested in recruiting strong quantitative scientists who are interested in making a difference in health and gaining exposure to clinical research topics related to cardiovascular disease. Current research areas within our group include topics related to “Big Data” of cardiovascular disease and diabetes including proteomics, metabolomics, genomics, biostatistical analyses of national survey data, traditional epidemiologic cohorts, electronic health records, and the clinical epidemiology of cardiovascular disease, diabetes, and related conditions. Tuition and stipend for post-doctoral trainees (research fellowship after completion of a PhD or master’s degree after MD degree/equivalent) are available on a merit basis for U.S. citizens or permanent residents.
