“A day in the life of a cardiology fellow can vary a lot from month to month. Certain rotations are inpatient focused, and we treat patients admitted to the hospital or cardiac ICU. Some rotations will be focused on procedures such as cardiac catheterization or electrophysiology, while others are all about imaging interpretation of echocardiograms, cardiac MRIs and nuclear stress tests. Our daily schedule changes significantly depending on the rotation.”
Prior Employers: Vaxart (pre-clinical oral table vaccine for influenza, norovirus, and now COVID) Focus Diagnostics/Quest Diagnostics Allergan “My day-to-day involves managing the operations of a clinical immunology laboratory. My group specializes in the development, qualification, and validation of vaccine and immunotherapeutic response assays for the testing of samples from subjects in vaccine clinical trials. Much of my time bounces back and forth between organizing the staff for their daily activities, reviewing data, and writing scientific documents. I also spend time ensuring the materials (virus and controls), equipment, paperwork, and facilities are meeting the regulatory guidelines necessary for data generated for submission to the FDA.”
