Throughout the three years there is a comprehensive academic program of rounds and conferences. The fellows participate in regular conferences at the catheterization laboratories, and daily attending rounds in the CCU and on the consult services at Bellevue and the NYVA. Weekly conferences include Cardiology Grand Rounds and Cardiology Journal Club, both attended by the full staff, an Electrophysiology Conference and Grand Rounds of the Department of Medicine.

At the very popular Clinical Case Conference the trainees present cases and didactic material for discussion by and the education of the Division as a whole. At the weekly Bellevue Cardiac Clinic (the first Cardiac Clinic established in this country) and the NYVA continuity clinic, the Fellows are supervised in the evaluation and management of outpatients with complex cardiologic problems. A Core Curriculum of two year's duration meets weekly and provides Fellows with a comprehensive overview of basic and clinical cardiology.

Emergency Core Lectures over the summer weeks cover topics of acute cardiac diagnosis and care in order to prepare the Fellow for those challenging nights on call. There are special conferences on non-invasive techniques, including the Friday morning Echo Conference, and others centered on cardiac CT and MR imaging.
