Women's Heart Disease & Health
Led by some of the nation’s best educators in health science, our programs are at the forefront of translational medicine and healthcare innovation.
The Barbra Streisand Women's Heart Center, part of the Smidt Heart Institute, plays a leading role in identifying female-pattern heart disease, developing new diagnostic tools and advancing specialized care for women.
The Barbra Streisand Women's Heart Center Fellowship in Women's Heart Disease and Health at Cedars-Sinai is designed to accomplish several goals:
- Provide focused training in clinical, basic and translational research in cardiovascular disease in women, and sex and gender differences in cardiovascular health and disease.
- Provide training in the comprehensive care of women across their lifespans.
- Train practitioners in research, teaching, health administration and policy in women's health.
- Respond to the needs of residents, fellows, faculty and volunteer staff in regard to their work on women's health issues at Cedars-Sinai and in the community.
Two fellow positions are available each academic year for the one-year fellowship, which is not accredited by the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education. Selected fellows can be invited to complete a second year.
