Clinical activity consists of seeing and evaluating patients in the outpatient clinics and inpatient floors, performing complex procedures under supervision, and following up throughout and after the patient's episode. Trainees are given access to didactic teaching materials, and are expected to attend all of the clinical conferences. Research is an important part of advanced training fellowships. Trainees will participate in the clinical research programs involving patients under their care, and will generate and pursue their own projects with a senior faculty mentor. These projects should culminate in presentations for national meetings, and publication in peer reviewed journals.
Trainees come as faculty or fellows according to their prior experience and licensing.
Funding is individualized. Candidates are expected to apply for grants where appropriate. These training positions are highly competitive and selections are made more than one year in advance. Applications should be sent to Dr. Peter Cotton at address listed in sidebar. We get many requests for short-term attachments.
