SELECTIVE PATHOLOGY (SURGICAL PATHOLOGY) FELLOWSHIP PROGRAM
Currently accepting applications for 2024 (2 positions)
Currently accepting applications for2025 (2 positions)
Two ACGME-accredited one-year fellowship positions that will provide an intensive experience in general surgical pathology and subspecialties, including breast, GYN, GI, pulmonary, renal, head and neck, placental pathology, dermatopathology and neuropathology, supervised by dedicated and expert faculty. The service includes approximately 28,000 cases per year and encompasses a wide variety of organ systems and subspecialties, drawn from a major tertiary care medical center. The fellows are involved in the preview and sign-out of cases, performance and interpretation of frozen sections, and supervision of the gross room, and have unprecedented opportunities to participate in translational research. The fellows are greatly encouraged, though not required, to complete a research project during their fellowship and present the findings at a major conference. The fellows will become familiar with the innovative use of technology to improve workflow, and the significance of quality assurance and improvement within surgical pathology. The fellows also take part in teaching residents and medical students and present at clinical conferences.
We are participating in the Unified Approach and Common Timeline for recruitment to the fellowship.
