UCONN Health and the University of Connecticut School of Medicine seek a BE/BC Cardiothoracic Surgeon (CTS) for our new, comprehensive, academic Thoracic Surgery program.

  • Partnerships with Jackson Labs and the Center for Aging provide a wonderful opportunity for research collaboration.
  • The ideal candidate will be well-versed in minimally invasive thoracic surgery and esophageal surgery including robotics and VATS.
