Training Grant & Fellowship
Offered by the ML CTO Academy for a fellowship in a centre of excellence
The ML CTO Academy offers a training grant of 10,000€
for a clinical fellowship in interventional cardiology.
The next call for candidate application period will run
from May 1st to July 31st 2024.
The ML CTO Academy training grant provides an opportunity for clinical training in a country other than the applicant’s own. The grants are for fellows who have completed the major part of their interventional cardiology training, but have not yet obtained a post defined as ‘permanent’, ‘senior staff’, or ‘consultant’, and want to improve their skills and knowledge in complex interventional cardiology treatment.
The goal of this award is to help young candidates attain clinical competence and acquire experience in high-quality CTO PCI practice, which will enable them to contribute to the improvement of academic standards upon return to their own countries.
