Conferences

Weekly conferences are scheduled Wednesdays and Thursdays. The core lectures are an 18 month cycle of all topics of cardiology, grouped by topic. In each topic block, we try to integrate lectures on basic science, pathophysiology, imaging, clinical aspects, and guidelines. The rough outline is as follows:

1. Coronary artery disease
2. Cardiovascular Risk Factors
3. Valvular Disease
4. Congenital Heart Disease
5. Congestive Heart Failure
6. Arrhythmia/EP
7. Peripheral Vascular Disease
8. Special Topics
