ACGME FELLOWSHIP POSITION AVAILABLE 2023

ACGME-Accredited Medical Microbiology Fellowship Positions Now Available

Our 2022, 2023, and 2024 ACGME fellowship positions are filled. 2025 applicants will be accepted during the usual time to apply for fellowships. Please see the following link for further application information:  https://www.bidmc.org/medical-education/medical-education-by-department/pathology/fellowship/medical-microbiology. Seeking strongly motivated graduating infectious disease fellows and pathology residents in ACGME-accrediated programs to pursue one year of intensive medical microbiology and public health microbiology training in our academic, translational research focused fellowship program. Completion of the fellowship program and passing the American Board of Pathology Medical Microbiology Boards will qualify graduates to direct clinical microbiology laboratories and pursue careers that bridge medical microbiology and infectious disease practice.

Program Objectives

The goal of the training programs in Medical and Public Health Laboratory Microbiology (CPEP- and ACGME-accredited Programs) based at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center in collaboration with Children’s Hospital Boston and the State Laboratory Institute is to train fellows to assume leadership roles in academic, tertiary care and or public health clinical microbiology laboratories. Philosophically we believe that this education is best accomplished through hands-on instruction in microbiological methods, direct participation in the consultative and administrative activities of the microbiology laboratory, and participation in activities of the infectious diseases, pharmacy, and infection control/hospital epidemiology departments. A further philosophical belief is that fellows should be trained in the thought process involved in furthering the knowledge in our specialty.  Our ultimate goal is to train academic leaders in the specialty who will both lead microbiology laboratories, and also contribute at a scientific level to microbiology diagnostics and/or to our understanding of infectious diseases. Lastly, we strongly encourage involvement in research in our field and would consider it a mark of an outstanding fellow to take advantage of the many research opportunities available during fellowship training. During our program, fellows will also participate in activities of the Massachusetts State Laboratory Institute and Boston Children’s Hospital to ensure a comprehensive experience that also includes training in public health and pediatric microbiology.
