Program Description:
The goal of this program is to provide doctoral
scientists or physicians the necessary skills, knowledge, and experience
to practice clinical chemistry in a hospital or industrial setting.
Since trainees may have different backgrounds, the structure of
the program is flexible. Each trainee will rotate through all sections
of the laboratory at the Massachusetts General Hospital and attend
daily lectures, conferences, and chemistry rounds. The trainee will
assume progressively greater levels of responsibility for technical,
management, and selected medical projects/problems. Opportunities
are available for research in a number of laboratory areas. At the
end of the fellowship, trainees are qualified to seek certification
by the ABCC or equivalent Board.
