All fellows are required to complete a research project during the course of their three-year general cardiology fellowship. There are a number of opportunities for fellows to participate in research projects. We have multiple research laboratories that are used for clinical experiments and device development. Fellows also have the opportunity to participate as reviewers for the Texas Heart Institute Journal, if they are so inclined. We are active in numerous clinical trials, including ABSORB II, AMAZE, MICRA and MOMENTUM 3. THI actively collaborates with Rice University for biomedical engineering and device development.
