CSION develops leaders in military medical research

Airmen participate in a special warfare training wing assessment and selection course at Joint Base San Antonio, March 14, 2023. Clinician Scientist Investigator Opportunity Network (CSION) fellow, U.S. Air Force Maj. (Dr.) Nicholas Villalobos, received research funding to study swimming-induced pulmonary edema in special warfare trainees, a poorly understood health condition that can occur while swimming or scuba diving. The CSION program is a 2-year additional-duty research fellowship intended to teach clinicians how to conduct ‘requirements-driven’ research within the Department of Defense.
