The Departments of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine offer a one year Molecular Genetic Pathology Fellowship (ACGME accreditation pending). The fellowship includes training in the areas of cancer genetics (solid tumors and hematopathology), inherited disease, infectious disease, forensics, pharmacogenomics, and cytogenetics. Fellows learn the methodologies used to perform molecular testing, how to interpret and report test results, how to develop and validate new testing, how to oversee a molecular pathology laboratory, and how to serve as consultants to the clinical services. In addition, fellows actively participate in the clinical practice of Medical Genetics during their time in the Genetics Clinics. Fellows are expected to actively participate in an academic research project. A second year of fellowship is available by arrangement to allow more in depth research pursuits.
