SCAI Announces 2025-26 Recipients of JSCAI Editorial Fellowship Program
WASHINGTON — The Society for Cardiovascular Angiography & Interventions (SCAI) is pleased to announce the selection of 10 outstanding early-career interventional cardiologists for the 2025-26 JSCAI Editorial Fellowship Program cohort.
The JSCAI Editorial Fellowship Program provides fellows-in-training and early-career interventionalists with a unique opportunity to develop their skills as peer reviewers and gain firsthand experience in the editorial process. Participants are paired with JSCAI Deputy or Associate Editors who share their clinical interests, receiving mentorship from experts with extensive editorial and publishing experience. Throughout the two-year program, fellows engage in editorial discussions, review manuscripts, and contribute to JSCAI's ongoing success.
"We are incredibly privileged to welcome these 10 outstanding clinicians as JSCAI editorial fellows. These fellows represent the best and brightest in interventional cardiology, and their participation will significantly enhance the journal’s peer-review process. Their expertise, dedication, and enthusiasm elevate the quality of our publication, and they will also serve as vital ambassadors for JSCAI within the interventional cardiology community,” said JSCAI Editor-in-Chief Alexandra Lansky, MD, MSCAI. “The JSCAI Editorial Fellowship Program enhances the quality of JSCAI’s editorial process and cultivates a diverse and exceptionally talented group of future leaders in interventional cardiology. We are excited to see how these individuals will continue to shape interventional cardiology and the broader scientific community."
Editorial fellows participate in a range of activities, including writing editorials and review papers, contributing to the SCAI Conversations in Interventional Cardiology video series, engaging with JSCAI’s social media outreach, and taking part in other journal initiatives. Their contributions will be recognized at both the SCAI Scientific Sessions and the SCAI Fellows Courses, underscoring their role in advancing academic scholarship in interventional cardiology.
The inaugural cohort of the JSCAI Editorial Fellowship Program, which is now concluding its term, will continue to play an integral role in JSCAI as editorial board members. Over the past two years, these fellows have been instrumental in manuscript reviews, editorial contributions, and discussions shaping the journal’s growth. Their continued engagement reflects the program’s long-term impact in fostering the next generation of leaders in interventional cardiology.
