Neurogastroenterology and Motility Advanced Training Fellowship

The Advanced Neurogastroenterology and Motility Fellowship is a one-year clinical and research training opportunity beginning annually on July 1. The Neurogastroenterology and Motility (NGM) Fellow will be appointed to a year-long clinical instructor position. This advanced fellowship is not ACGME accredited and does not participate in the NRMP Match Program.

The primary goal of this fellowship is to provide formalized and immersive subspecialty training in the field of neurogastroenterology and motility in preparation for launching an academic career in this discipline. Over the course of the year, the NGM Fellow will gain exposure to the wide range of relevant pathology seen at our quaternary referral center. Training objectives will span the clinical management of complex medical conditions, the interpretation of specialized physiologic testing modalities, and the inception and completion of at least one original research project under the mentorship of a core faculty member within the Program in Neurogastroenterology and Motility.

The breadth and depth of the training experience will be further supported through collaboration with colleagues in esophagology, surgery, pediatrics, psychology, and radiology, among others. By the completion of this advanced training program, fellows will successfully demonstrate proficiency in the evaluation and management of common presentations to a subspecialty neurogastroenterology and motility clinic and in the performance and interpretation of procedures typical to a comprehensive gastrointestinal physiology laboratory.
