Major Goals of Training Program
Our Allergy and Immunology Fellowship program aims are to enable our fellows to become independent, practicing Allergy and Immunology specialists capable of managing patients in a variety of settings. We want to instill in our fellows the value of on-going scholarship for both those pursuing academic careers and those who will practice in non-academic settings by exposure to national meetings and organizations primed to assist in continued scholarship. We will accomplish our aims through a strong curriculum with a focus on medical knowledge and patient care in our clinical settings, communication skills development, practice-based learning and improvement, systems-based practice and professionalism. Experience will be gained with focus on patient care and consultative services. Fellows are required to do self-driven research projects, safety projects and quality improvement projects. In addition to the self-driven projects described above, fellows are also welcome to join any ongoing research projects being conducted by faculty. Our fellows will gain exposure to the medically underserved population by participation in our clinical and hospital settings. In addition to QI/Research projects they will also participate in appropriate hospital committees under the guidance of faculty members.
