Customized Training for the Career You Want

Our curriculum starts with an interactive bootcamp, which is a mix of lectures and hands-on learning to prepare you for your clinical and research work during fellowship.

We also offer a unique anaphylaxis shock simulation. This takes place once at the UW Health Clinical Simulation Program, and again in the clinic, where food challenges that may bring on anaphylaxis shock are encountered.

Didactic Experiences

  • Weekly conferences on such topics as food allergy, asthma, skin testing, IT prescriptions and drug allergies
  • Hands-on sessions with a clinic nurse on how to use asthma inhalers, sinus rinses and nasal sprays
  • Meetings with faculty to learn about active research and clinical trials, in preparation for research participation

Fellows attend and present at these didactic conferences throughout the year.

Our research curriculum includes monthly mentor meetings and quarterly research committee meetings.

Clinical Experiences

Our integrated adult and pediatric clinics prepare you to care for patients for all ages. You'll see patients in your own continuity clinic and in our clinical research evaluation clinic. We also offer elective rotations in the ENT and dermatology clinics.

Scholarly Activity

Research

Fellows identify a research mentor during their first few weeks of the fellowship. This mentor works closely with you throughout training to assist with your local and national presentations. Many fellows also author at least one publication with the assistance of their mentor.

See our fellowship research page for more details.

Teaching

The Department of Medicine's Fellow Medical Education (FAME) Training Track trains fellows to become effective clinician-teachers and scholars.
