VCRC-VF Fellowship

About this program

The VCRC‑VF Fellowship, offered jointly by the Vasculitis Clinical Research Consortium (an NIH‑funded consortium) and the Vasculitis Foundation, provides up to two years of mentored training for physician‑investigators with a strong interest in vasculitis. The program emphasizes clinical and translational patient‑oriented research and places fellows with senior faculty mentors at VCRC‑affiliated clinical and research centers in North America. Applicants must be physician‑investigators seeking advanced clinical‑research training in vasculitis; selection is competitive and supports 1–2 year mentored research projects. Since its 2014 inception the fellowship has trained over 25 physician‑researchers who contribute to improved diagnosis and care for people living with vasculitis.
