Several important conferences are offered as part of the teaching program. Each fellow is expected to participate fully in:

  • Hematology/Oncology core curriculum lecture series.

  • Weekly medical grand rounds
  • Monthly journal club
  • Monthly clinical research conference where ongoing clinical trials within each research program are presented.
  • Interdisciplinary protocol conferences relating to the organ system clinic in which the fellow is currently participating (e.g. bone marrow transplant, chest oncology, GU).
