Fellowship is an elected position open to members who have demonstrated continuous, meritorious research in cardiovascular physiology. 

The purpose of electing fellows:

  2. Be a regular member of the American Physiological Society.
  3. Have their primary or secondary affiliation with the Cardiovascular Section.

Nominations for fellowship will be made by two Cardiovascular Fellows submitting letters of nomination to the Chair of the Section’s Fellowship Committee.

When a fellow becomes an emeritus member of the APS, they relinquish their fellowship and becomes an emeritus member of the Section.
