The overall goal of our fellowship program is to train fellows to be superb academic clinicians and physician scientists in Pulmonary and Critical Care Medicine (PCCM) over a 36-month period of time and to prepare them to be the next generation of leaders in academic pulmonary and critical care medicine. The fellows develop and hone their clinical skills in PCCM over a 24-month period of time and pursue research endeavors for 12 months towards the latter half of their fellowship.
