Los Angeles County-Harbor-UCLA Medical Center Program
About This Program
Harbor-UCLA is one of very few Pulmonary and Critical Care training programs in the country based primarily in a Public Teaching Hospital. Clinical, research and community engagement uniquely utilize this position to maximize training opportunities for fellows. The Lundquist Institute for Biomedical Research, a stand alone medical research organization located on the Harbor-UCLA campus, allows fellows to engage in research at a level not typically available in a Public Hospital.
