Cardiovascular Division
Welcome to the Cardiovascular Division and Lillehei Heart Institute! For more than six decades we have been known for our leadership and innovation in the treatment of cardiovascular disease. While our clinical faculty provide outstanding, innovative, and compassionate care, our clinical and basic science research programs provide the backbone of cutting-edge, clinical-care solutions we embed into our care models.
Collaborative efforts with colleagues in multiple other departments accelerate discovery across disciplines. A key area of emphasis is our strong dedication to training the next generation of cardiologists and academic scientists.
The division offers a three-year ACGME approved fellowship program that offers outstanding educational opportunities in general and subspecialty cardiology designed to develop careers in clinical practice, academic medicine, and industry.
Research conducted at the Lillehei Heart Institute brings together faculty and students committed to cardiovascular scholarship, facilitating their interaction and allowing them to share core University resources.
Our heart specialists and their teams build upon a 60-year legacy of clinical care, research and innovation, including the world’s first open-heart surgery.
