Fellowship in Laboratory Genetics and Genomics (LGG)

The Yale Genetics Department sponsors a two-year fellowship in Laboratory Genetics and Genomics leading to eligibility for certification by the American Board of Medical Genetics and Genomics (ABMGG). Application for the fellowship is open to individuals with a U.S. or Canadian doctoral degree (M.D., D.O., Ph.D.), or equivalent credentials that have been approved by the ABMGG.

This program prepares fellows to interpret both clinical cytogenetic and molecular genetic analyses relevant to the diagnosis and management of human genetic disease and cancer and to act as directors of laboratories offering tests for molecular and chromosomal-based disorders.

Upon completion of the program, fellows can apply for certification through the American Board of Medical Genetics and Genomics (ABMGG); information on this process can be found here.
