A Brief Overview
This role is overseen by the Graduate Medical Education Department and is to be used for trainees in ACGME Accredited Training Programs. The core focus of fellowship is the continued supervision of junior residents & medical students as well as advancement of knowledge and development of patient management, teaching and management skills.

Fellowship training is advanced graduate medical education beyond a core residency program for physicians who desire to enter more specialized practice. Fellowship-trained physicians serve the public by providing subspecialty care, which may also include core medical care, acting as a community resource for expertise in their field, creating and integrating new knowledge into practice, and educating future generations of physicians.

Fellows who have completed residency are able to practice autonomously in their core specialty. The prior medical experience and expertise of fellows distinguish them from physicians entering residency. The fellow's care of patients within the subspecialty is undertaken with appropriate faculty supervision and conditional independence allowing fellows to attain the knowledge, skills, attitudes, judgment, and empathy required for autonomous specialized practice. Faculty members serve as role models of excellence, compassion, cultural sensitivity, professionalism, and scholarship. The fellow develops deep medical knowledge, patient care skills, and expertise applicable to their focused area of practice.
Fellowship is an intensive program of subspecialty clinical and didactic education that focuses on the multidisciplinary care of patients. Fellowship training occurs in variety of clinical learning environments committed to graduate medical education and the well-being of patients, residents, fellows, faculty members, students, rand all members of the health care team and while strengthening the foundation for practice-based and lifelong learning.

In addition to clinical education, many fellowship programs advance fellows' skills as physician-scientists. While the ability to create new knowledge within medicine is not exclusive to fellowship-educated physicians, the fellowship experience expands a physician's abilities to pursue hypothesis-driven scientific inquiry that results in contributions to the medical literature and patient care. Beyond the clinical subspecialty expertise achieved, fellows develop mentored relationships built on an infrastructure that promotes collaborative research.
