Training will include experience in bone marrow and lymph node pathology, immunophenotyping by flow cytometry, molecular diagnostics, coagulation and other areas of laboratory hematology. Following initial experience, it is expected that the fellow will assume responsibility comparable to a junior faculty member. Numerous conferences as well as teaching opportunities with students are an integral part of the program. It is anticipated that an area of research interest will be identified early in the fellowship and that a clinical research project will be completed during the training. There is a high level of interaction with the clinical department of hematology.
