The LOGIC Model was used to develop a clinical lipidology subspecialty program that provides formal preparation for health care professionals focused in the clinical lipidology content area. Objectives were developed based on the National Lipid Association core curriculum; topics include atherosclerosis, lifestyle and pharmacological management of dyslipidemias, metabolic syndrome, vascular biology, advanced lipoprotein metabolism, and atherosclerosis imaging. Four courses provide students with expert knowledge to effectively manage complex dyslipidemia. Implementation of the program within formal academic units will increase the number of health care providers with specific clinical knowledge to care for patients/families with complex dyslipidemia and related cardiometabolic conditions.
