Robarts Clinical Trials - Advanced Histopathology Fellowship (Gastroenterology)
Opening for 2019-2020
COMPANY SUMMARY:
Robarts Clinical Trials (RCT), established in 1986, is a specialty contract research organization focused in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and digestive disease research.
JOB SUMMARY:
Specific areas of research interest include: organizational aspects of clinical trials, clinical trial design, validation of central reading algorithms, development and validation of IBD scoring systems, evaluation and critical appraisal of outcome measures, index development, development and validation of prediction models and precision medicine projects.
RCT is now offering a fellowship opportunity in histopathology to further support histopathological index development and validation, quantitative digital pathology including development and validation of artificial intelligence (AI)-tools, immunohistochemistry, and immunofluorescence. The fellow will have a dual affiliation with Robarts Clinical Trials and the Mayo Clinic in Arizona under the supervision of Dr. Rish K. Pai.
Completion of a successful fellowship will lead to an advanced understanding of the application of histopathology in drug development as it relates to the field of gastroenterology. Specific topics for a histopathology fellowship can be tailored to the candidate's interest, availability of material and industry collaborations. Possible topics include assessing the operating properties of histological scoring systems in Crohn's Disease (CD) and Ulcerative Colitis (UC), evaluating the impact of number and location of biopsies on histological endpoints, or developing a novel histopathology index for CD. The fellowship could also focus on the role of immunohistochemistry in clinical drug development, alongside histopathology, endoscopy, patient reported outcomes and clinical pharmacology to provide better insights in the mechanism of action of small and large molecules. Robarts' recent expansion into the fields of eosinophilic esophagitis and non-alcoholic steatohepatitis provides additional areas in which to focus.
QUALIFICATIONS:
• M.D., or Ph.D with experience in the field of pathology/translational medicine

The fellow will have opportunities for teaching medical students, technologists, residents, and fellows from other services. This program will provide the fellow with a rich educational experience leading to expertise in Blood Banking/Transfusion Medicine and the qualifications for eligibility for specialty certification in Blood Banking/Transfusion Medicine. It will form a basis for a career in the academic or community practice setting.
The faculty, residents, and main laboratory facilities are housed in the Penn State Milton S. Hershey Medical Center. The adult hospital has a capacity of approximately 500 beds and the free standing children's hospital approximately 75 beds. It is a both an adult and pediatric tertiary care hospital and the main teaching hospital of the Pennsylvania State University College of Medicine. It includes a Level I trauma center, a Level III neonatal intensive care unit, and is a major referral center for complicated adult and pediatric hematology/oncology cases. The Division of Clinical Pathology has abundant clinical opportunities for training a fellow in Blood Banking/Transfusion Medicine. The Transfusion Service of the Hershey Medical Center is a full service operation providing allogeneic and autologous whole blood and hematopoietic stem cell collections, plateletpheresis collection, therapeutic phlebotomy, and therapeutic apheresis. Annually, over 20,000 units of allogeneic red blood cells (~50,000 total blood components) are transfused, and ~1000 therapeutic apheresis procedures are performed (including plasma exchange, red cell exchange, cytoreduction, and peripheral blood stem cell collections). The Blood Bank/Transfusion Service is accredited by CAP, FACT, and the AABB..

Fellowship in Thoracic Pathology
University of Pittsburgh Medical Center
The Thoracic Pathology Center of Excellence (COE) at the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center is recruiting fellows for academic years 2019/2020 and 2020/2021 to its one or two year program in Thoracic Pathology. The program covers training in cardiac, mediastinal, and pleuropulmonary pathology and is unique in that it offers subspecialty training in each of these thoracic areas, by thoracic pathologists focused on reactive airway disease/asthma, inflammatory lung disease, lung transplantation, and neoplastic lung disease. Multidisciplinary conferences support each of these areas. These interests are supplemented by a large caseload of surgical pathology materials derived from the academic medical center at UPMC Presbyterian Shadyside but also the other community hospitals of the UPMC Health System who use the COE as its reference laboratory. The Thoracic COE has strong academic credentials with involvement in most national and international societies and consensus groups, and it provides for research studies, book funds, and resources to attend national conferences focused on thoracic pathology. Additional rotations are available in molecular pathology, thoracic radiology, pulmonary bronchoscopy, and thoracic surgery. A fellowship in Thoracic Pathology in Pittsburgh will provide a global experience in thoracic, pleural, and mediastinal disease that encompasses all elements of pulmonary pathology from inflammatory disease to neoplasia to lung transplantation. Interested residents should send a cover letter, their curriculum vitae and list of three references to:
