University of Minnesota Program
About This Program
UMN provides fellows a unique, multi-site training experience caring for a diverse patient population with a broad spectrum of infectious diseases. The goal of our fellowship program is to prepare outstanding clinicians to embark on careers in investigation, education, and scholarship. For those interested, we have experience successfully petitioning the ABP and the ABIM for combined pediatric and adult infectious diseases training on behalf of prior fellows.
