Medical Biochemical Genetics Fellowship

The Medical Biochemical Genetics fellowship is a one year training experience that provides an integrated approach to the diagnosis and management of patients with inborn errors of metabolism.

The program integrates all aspects of clinical patient care including both inpatient and outpatient settings and laboratory diagnosis throughout the year. During the clinical months, a combination of inpatient and outpatient responsibilities will allow fellows to maintain continuity of care in the management of patients with metabolic diseases. Didactic sessions and clinical conferences are ongoing throughout the year.
