“I look forward to Nick's leadership during this transition period, which will include a national search,” says Christopher Hess, MD, PhD, Alexander R. Margulis Distinguished Professor and Chair of UCSF Radiology.

Distinguished as a clinical educator and practitioner in the areas of biliary tract interventions, transplant interventions, and interventional oncology, Dr. Fidelman has also mentored dozens of trainees over the years. His research focuses on advancing the field of Interventional Radiology through clinical trials, for which he currently holds leadership research positions on 10 ongoing or recently completed prospective trials.

Dr. Fidelman is a frequent invited speaker at national and international conferences. His current leadership in professional organizations includes as a co-founder and executive committee member of the American Society of Digestive Disease Interventions, co-director of the Digestive Disease Interventions Annual Meeting, Chair of the American College of Radiology Appropriateness Committee, Interventional Radiology Panel #2, Coordinator for the Society of Interventional Oncology, Neuroendocrine Tumor Task Force, and numerous committee memberships. Nick is currently an associate editor for the Journal of Digestive Disease Interventions and a reviewer for Radiology, Lancet Oncology, Journal of Clinical Oncology, and Public Library of Science (PLoS One) among others.
