Fellowship Training

Hematopathology, Microbiology, Transfusion Medicine, and MD-Chemical Pathology (all ACGME-accredited) have one-year fellowships that include translational and clinical research. The PhD-Chemical Pathology fellowship is a 2-year program (COMACC-accredited) that likewise includes research during the clinical training.

Laboratory Medicine also has a specialized basic and translational post-doctoral research T32 training grant program in the broad field of Immunohematology. This grant provides the opportunity to work in the laboratory of any Yale faculty, including members from our own department, or other clinical or basic science departments, usually in but not limited to the Medical School. Previous T32 trainees have worked with primary mentors in Immunobiology, Genetics, Cell Biology, Pathology, Internal Medicine, Bioengineering, and Pharmacology, amongst others.

The research training program can be undertaken as a second or subsequent year of training following clinical fellowship training, residency training in AP, CP or AP/CP, or training in another relevant discipline (e.g., Internal Medicine-Hematology). It is not necessary to have carried out one's clinical training at Yale to apply for the research training program.
