Nutrition and Metabolism Fellowship
Established in 2016, our two-year fellowship in endocrinology, diabetes and metabolism offers a challenging curriculum, diverse clinical experiences and plentiful opportunities for research that prepares graduates for clinical or academic practice in endocrinology.
The overall objective of our program is for fellows to have clinical experiences that allow for the in-depth observation and management of patients with metabolic conditions that contribute to cardiovascular disease and other complications. Fellows will have clinical and non-clinical experiences that will expose them to areas of expertise that significantly affect the care of patients with metabolic disorders. Scholarship in the field of cardiometabolic health is required.
