Monash Cardiovascular Research Centre (MCRC) researcher and
MonashHeart cardiologist Dr Rob Gooley has been accepted as a Cardiovascular
Research Technologies (CRT) Young Leader and will serve as faculty at the
annual CRT symposium in Washington D.C. later this month.
The lead cardiologist for structural heart disease at Monash
Health, Dr Gooley provides patients with interventional and percutaneous
structural heart procedures.
“The
CRT Young Leadership program recognises practitioners who are early in their
career but have demonstrated a commitment to advancing the evidence base of
their specialty and shown leadership within the field,” said Dr Gooley.
“The
program exposes recipients to current experts in the field who can provide
guidance and mentorship while developing collaborative relationships.”
The
highly competitive CRT Young Leadership program is open to early career
practitioners globally in the interventional cardiology field. Only twenty
applicants are chosen from the global pool of applicants.
“As a
member of the faculty at CRT2017, I will be responsible for chairing sessions,
providing educational lectures and adjudicating submitted research for award presentations,”
said Dr Gooley.
“In
addition to my involvement in the academic program I will be involved in
workshops to introduce those in the Young Leadership program to current world
leaders, build relationships and encourage future collaborations.”
Dr Gooley’s research is focused on multimodality imaging
assessment of patients—pre and post structural interventions—with an aim of
refining patient selection and improving the safety and efficacy of procedures. This research was also the topic of his PhD,
which he completed at Monash University in December.
