Description
Students desiring a very special opportunity to gain clinical and research experience in pathology should consider applying for the Post-Sophomore Fellowship (PSF) open each academic year in the department. One to two students will be selected and will have rotations and duties similar to first-year residents in pathology. This will provide the student a unique avenue to expand his or her current knowledge base through hands-on experience in a hospital setting. One-half year of basic science laboratory research with departmental faculty may be available for qualifying students.
Students work closely with attending faculty and resident pathologists in gross and microscopic diagnoses, intraoperative consultations (frozen sections) and clinical pathology consultations. Students will also prepare case material for presentation at departmental and subspecialty conferences and have the opportunity to participate in research projects. This 12 month fellowship commences on June 1 and runs through May of the subsequent year.
PSFs are provided a stipend and parking pass (parking zones 5 and 6).
Additional information regarding the application process is available from our program director, Rashna Madan, MBBS. Acceptance of applications is ongoing between the fall semester and January of each academic year prior to the assignment and must be submitted as original with signature in order to be accepted. Please include a current curriculum vitae, two (2) letters of support, a sealed medical transcript, a standard passport-sized photograph, and a letter of personal statement with the application. Selection is ongoing starting in December of each year and will be completed and processed through the School of Medicine’s Student Affairs prior to third-year curriculum selection.
Letters of recommendation should be addressed to Rashna Madan, MBBS, Professor and Post-Sophomore Fellowship Program Director.
Applications for AY 2025 (starting June or July 204 to June or July 2025) are now being accepted until mid-January 2024.
