We seek accomplished individuals who will contribute to the continued growth and strategic advancement of Penn's expanding Cardio-Oncology Program through excellence in patient care, education, mentorship, and interdisciplinary collaboration with the Abramson Cancer Center and related oncology specialties.

Selected candidates will be given ample mentorship to achieve clinical and clinical research productivity with a goal of maintaining and growing both national and regional prominence in the field. Members of the Penn Cardio-Oncology program work collaboratively with medical oncologists, radiation oncologists and surgeons in the NCI-designated Abramson Comprehensive Cancer Center to provide exceptional care for complex conditions in both the inpatient and outpatient setting. The ideal candidate will be committed to the continued growth and clinical development of the division.

Faculty benefit from an unparalleled ecosystem of collaboration, working alongside internationally recognized leaders across disciplines and engaging in cutting-edge, translational research that directly informs clinical practice.
