Applications for 2011 due by 1/31/2010

Thank you for your interest in postdoctoral training in Infectious Disease at the University of Wisconsin-Madison.

Our training program is designed to prepare postdoctoral fellows for academic and/or clinical careers in the disciplines of Infectious Disease. We offer a combined clinical/research fellowship that is two (or more) years in duration and includes the required two years of combined clinical and research training for ABIM subspecialty certification and an optional additional year or longer of full-time research.

The Section of Infectious Disease at UW is committed to the training of academically oriented Infectious Disease specialists and provides unique opportunities for fellows to:

1. Develop diagnostic and management skills as an Infectious Disease consultant
2. Develop and complete patient-oriented research projects
3. Investigate the pathogenesis of infectious diseases
4. Investigate drug discovery and development of antiinfectives

Infectious Disease fellows at UW are introduced to and can choose to participate actively in the research endeavors of many laboratories and clinical research programs throughout the University of Wisconsin-Madison campus community.

This page (and the links in the menu to the left) were designed to provide you with an overview of training in Infectious Disease at UW.

Our training program participates in the ERAS electronic application service and the National Residency Matching Program for Infectious Disease fellowship match. We anticipate applicants will have three letters of recommendation in addition to their residency director's letter as a part of their ERAS electronic application.

Applications will reviewed by Section faculty and those applicants identified as strong candidates will be invited for an interview in February. As indicated above, applications are due by January 31. Incomplete applications as of that date will not be considered for an interview.
