Fellowship training will last a minimum of two years with the exact duration beyond that dictated by the individual requirements of the fellows and the resources of the Division. Fellows wishing to pursue a career in academic medicine may require additional postdoctoral training on completion of the initial period of fellowship training and are encouraged to stay for at least a third year of fellowship. The department will endeavor to facilitate this training within the Medical Center in the field of personal interest. Collaborative relationships with other Departments and Divisions are extensive.
