Endocrinology, Diabetes & Metabolism Fellowship
Overview
Our two-year program provides comprehensive and rigorous training in endocrinology and diabetes with focus on academic knowledge, clinical skills and cutting-edge research. Fellows are given didactic lectures and hands on supervised training by leaders in the field and develop extensive experience in management of endocrine disorders of various stages of complexity. First year of fellowship is mainly focused on clinical training in both inpatient and outpatient settings while the second year is mainly dedicated to an in-depth research experience in basic, clinical or translational fields in various areas of endocrinology.
An optional third year of training is available to select candidates who wish to pursue a research career. As one of the largest endocrine programs in the country, recruiting 4 applicants each year, our fellows learn to confidently manage complicated patients with a balanced combination of autonomy and attending supervision. Fellows enjoy ample opportunities to shape their own learning path and prepare for their future career of choice, whether in academic medicine, private practice, medical education or research.
