JCV Overview:
The JCV course designate indicates that most collaborating departments accept these courses toward their degree requirements - check with your department. These courses are intended to provide current state-of-the-art information on timely research topics in the cardiovascular field through seminars given by our faculty who are recognized experts. Students enrolled in the course do a presentation on a topic of their choosing relating to the course. Students are evaluated on their presentation, their class participation/attendance, and a review article that they write under the supervision of a mentor who was one of the session leaders.
NOTE: Registration is limited. First preference will be given to registered students of the Cardiovascular Sciences Collaborative Specialization. Further details on each of these courses are available below.
