The University of Wisconsin Section of Hematology and Medical Oncology offers a fellowship in Hematology with clinical and research opportunities in malignant hematologic diseases, hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, hemostasis and thrombosis, and immune-mediated hematologic disorders. The emphasis of the two to three-year program is on clinical training in all areas of Hematology, and Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation and the development of the necessary skills for an academic career through training in basic science and/or clinical research. The program is flexible, and we try to individualize each fellowship program according to the needs and interests of the individual fellow. The training program leads to board eligibility in Hematology.

The first year of the Hematology Fellowship is generally spent on clinical activities. The clinical rotations include the inpatient bone marrow transplant and hematology services at University of Wisconsin Hospital and Clinics; and outpatient hematology clinics at UW Hospital and the adjoining Middleton VA Hospital. We offer inpatient hematology consultative services at both hospitals. There are opportunities to participate in clinical research protocols and to teach medical students and residents in the School of Medicine and Public Health Hematology and Oncology Courses and on the wards. There are elective rotations available in oncology, pediatric hematology/oncology, radiation therapy, and in the coagulation and hematopathology laboratories.

We support and encourage research endeavors during the fellowship. The basic and clinical research in the Section of Hematology, Medical Oncology and associated programs within the UW Comprehensive Cancer Center provides diverse opportunities for experience in investigational treatment protocol development, translational and basic research. Most fellows will be eligible for the National Institute of Health T32 training grant support for a two year period. Fellows may elect a basic science focus and choose to enter a laboratory with a senior investigator/mentor or they may focus on a clinical research track that would include participation in the Masters of Population Health program at UW.

Our program will accept applications only through ERAS and offer positions only through the Match. Once your completed application has been reviewed, we will contact you regarding its status and the possibility of a visit to our institution for interviews with the program's faculty. We strongly encourage applications from all minorities.
