Clinical Training

"I choose to stay at UC San Diego due to the very diverse patient population that we serve, from the underserved and immigrant population we have at our Hillcrest Medical Campus to the highly-specialized transplant, cancer, and mechanical circulatory support services we offer at our La Jolla Medical Campus." - Mazen Odish

Since expressing this interest, I now have a team of mentors, have completed a small clinical trial, acquired multiple career development grants and am now in regular contact with global leaders in the field. Our division is even paying for my CREST courses to further bolster my clinical research skillset." - Brandon Nokes

The City

"In addition to being at a great training program, I find living in San Diego to be amazing! San Diego offers access to so many incredible landscapes including the beach, mountains, and desert. The city itself is also great, offering tons of breweries and concert venues. Living here makes for such a great fellowship experience." - Michelle Zhang

The Program

"What initially attracted me to UCSD was the balance between its strong clinical foundation, ongoing clinical investigations, and superb teaching. What makes me want to stay is the support from the program leadership to help me achieve my goals. I'm so fortunate to be at a program that embodies these three pillars yet allows individualization." - Erica Lin
