Description There has been significant growth in thoracic aortic surgery and transcatheter aortic and valvular therapies at the Palo Alto Veterans Affairs Health Care System. There is a programmatic need to recruit a cardiothoracic surgeon with expertise in these areas to join the Stanford faculty in the Department of Cardiothoracic Surgery at Stanford University as an Assistant Professor in the University Medical Line at the Palo Alto VA. There will be robust opportunity to participate in thoracic aortic surgery, valvular surgery, and other subspecialty areas in adult cardiovascular surgery at the Palo Alto VA. There will be occasional clinical coverage responsibilities at the Stanford main campus and at other Stanford-affiliated sites. There is a great desire to develop an integrated research program related to thoracic aortic diseases at the Palo Alto VA. Thus, this individual will also be specifically tasked with conducting basic science, translational, and engineering research in innovative aortic and cardiovascular therapies with the goal of developing an independently funded laboratory. The individual will also be involved in surgical resident and medical student education. The major criteria for appointment for faculty in the University Medical Line shall be excellence in the overall mix of clinical care, clinical teaching, scholarly activity that advances clinical medicine, and institutional service appropriate to the programmatic need the individual is expected to fulfill.

They must demonstrate excellence or promise of excellence in the overall mix of contributions in clinical care, teaching and scholarly activity that advances clinical medicine appropriate to the programmatic need upon which the appointment will be based. There should be evidence that candidates have the promise to attain regional recognition for excellence in the overall mix of contributions. If these individuals have not had formal teaching experience, they should have demonstrated during their house staff and fellowship training a commitment to teaching, and they should have the potential to meet or exceed acceptable standards in teaching. The successful applicant must be board-eligible or board-certified in Cardiothoracic Surgery, as well as resdiency-trained in Cardiothoracic Surgery.
