Research opportunities are available throughout the School of Medicine and at the National Jewish Medical and Research Center . We are very proud of the outstanding training our fellows receive, with most fellows pursuing a career in academic pediatrics following graduation. Faculty members of the Pediatric Pulmonary Section are broadly involved in resident and fellow education. All members of the Pediatric Pulmonary Section attend on the inpatient pulmonary service. One of the resident ward service attendings is always from the Pulmonary Section.
Faculty members give numerous lectures and conferences for the residents throughout the year.
Additionally, residents rotate through the Pediatric Pulmonary Section as an elective during part of their residency training. Evaluations from residents have consistently been excellent. Of note, almost every pulmonary faculty member has received the resident outstanding teaching award at some time. Members of the Section participate in teaching medical students on the pulmonary inpatient service as well as in the outpatient clinics. Fourth year medical students can take a fourth year elective on the Pediatric Pulmonary service.
