The clinical microbiology training faculty includes four individuals of varied backgrounds and interests. The clinical research experience is generally in the laboratories of these faculty but can be arranged in the laboratories of other members of The University of Iowa faculty if desired. The period of the fellowship is one to two years. In addition, a large diverse research area is established which includes the Anti-Infectives Research Center, Molecular Epidemiology Laboratories and Drug Resistance Surveillance Center. Candidates must have completed training in clinical pathology or another recognized medical specialty.
Support is commensurate with the candidate's level of postgraduate training.
