Additional Information
The fellowship provides comprehensive exposure to the practice of Maternal-Fetal Medicine in a major academic medical center. Clinical activity in two adjacent large teaching hospitals, which deliver 7000 women in aggregate. Experience on both private and municipal services thus provided. A busy Fetal Diagnostic and Testing Unit provides considerable expertise and technical skills in ultrasound evaluation of the fetus, fetal invasive procedures, Doppler evaluation of fetal blood flow, fetal heart rate monitoring and consultation relating to high risk pregnancy. An active regional program exists dedicated to the care of pregnant women with serious medical conditions, including diabetes mellitus and HIV/AIDS. Opportunities for fellows to pursue interests in global women's health, critical care medicine, or public health are available. Clinical or laboratory research is required and ample opportunities and guidance are provided. Examples of divisional laboratory research include: fetal origins of adult disease, carbohydrate metabolism in pregnancy, fetal and placental development of the role of annexin in pathologic pregnancy. A computerized perinatal data base system provides many opportunities for examining the relationships among obstetric risk factors, interventions and perinatal outcome. All of the members of the combined MFM division convene weekly to discuss on-going or planned research programs, clinical cases of unusual interest, or to review literature in areas of particular current relevance.Program Courses (in months)
