VCRC-VF Fellowship (Vasculitis Clinical Research Consortium - Vasculitis Foundation)

About this program

The Vasculitis Clinical Research Consortium (VCRC), in partnership with the Vasculitis Foundation (VF), offers the VCRC‑VF Fellowship, a mentored training program of up to two years for physician‑investigators pursuing specialized clinical and/or translational patient‑oriented research in vasculitis at VCRC‑affiliated sites in North America. Fellowships are individualized as a one‑year clinical or a two‑year research/clinical track and depend on the host institution’s established clinical and research program and availability of senior faculty mentors; there is no core curriculum. Eligible applicants are physician‑investigators who demonstrate a commitment to vasculitis and wish to undertake focused training, and appointment as a VCRC‑VF Fellow is not contingent on, nor a guarantee of, VCRC‑VF funding. Applications are accepted on a rolling basis with typical start dates aligned to the North American academic calendar (July 1), though alternate schedules may be accommodated.
