Additional Information

The philosophy of the fellowship is to provide a comprehensive experience in Maternal-Fetal Medicine while tailoring the program to each fellow's special interest. The first year focuses on clinical experience with rotations in ambulatory and in-patient high-risk obstetrics, prenatal diagnosis/procedure training, and genetics. The second year is devoted to course work and research. The Masters in Clinical Research is an available option. Basic and Clinical Research opportunities are available both within the division and in collaboration with other medical center programs. Our clinical and research facilities are superb. The MFM laboratory is fully equipped to perform a wide range of molecular biology techniques including real-time PCR, western blotting, and genotyping. We perform over 3,000 deliveries and 20,000 ultrasound evaluations per year. Formal divisional and departmental conferences, multiple medical center lectures and national meetings provide the opportunities for the fellows to participate and develop their academic careers.
