Openings for 2010
Position
Each year, two positions are available in this one-year program. This fellowship is designed for the training of board-eligible candidates who desire to practice nephropathology. This fellowship provides training for the interpretation of renal biopsies in all areas of Nephropathology, including native renal disease (adult and pediatric) and renal transplant pathology. The fellows receive intensive training and supervision, learning to interpret renal disease utilizing light, immunofluorescence and electron microscopic techniques. Gradually, they are given more responsibility, and ultimately function independently.
Fellows will have access to and participate in the evaluation of some 4,000 specimens per year collected by Nephropath. Nephropath receives specimens from many nephrology groups across the United States and the Dominican Republic. The large number of interesting cases and extensive database allow the Fellow the opportunity to pursue academic interests, if desired. Time is available and protected for scholarly work.
Fellows will attend and participate in the daily morning nephropathology conferences. They will also participate in monthly teaching conferences at Baptist and Arkansas Children’s Hospitals in Little Rock. The opportunity to be considered for a staff position at Nephropath is available following successful completion of the Fellowship to those with desire and interest.

These referral cases are largely generated by the Adult and Pediatric Bone Marrow Transplant services that together perform approximately 300 transplants annually. Due to the diversity of cases, the fellow will gain extensive diagnostic experience in the field of hematopathology, including uncommon disease entities, such as mature T-cell and NK-cell neoplasms and immunodeficiency associated lymphoproliferative disorders.
The fellow’s responsibilities are broad and at a level of training where an independent approach to case work-up is welcomed. The fellow is regarded as the initial pathologist on all cases and will write pathology reports integrating morphologic description and all ancillary studies (molecular, cytogenetic and flow cytometric results). The fellow is seen as the primary contact for referring pathologists and will be working closely with the clinical hematology/oncology faculty, gaining insights into the clinical management of patients. The fellow will be presenting weekly at both the lymphoma and leukemia conferences. Additionally, a monthly journal club aids in learning about new developments in this rapidly changing field. During the first year the fellow will be expected to participate in hematopathology-related translational projects, for which funding is provided. Furthermore, trainees with strong academic interests who are offered a 2-year fellowship will be able to choose among many outstanding research laboratories both within and outside the Department of Pathology and Immunology, and will be part of a stimulating and collegial research community with top-notch facilities and resources.
In summary, this program provides a strong basis for clinical practice including challenging cases in both adult and pediatric hematopathology, as well as opportunities for cutting-edge basic and translational research. Upon completion of the program, the fellow will have the necessary skills and experience to successfully pursue a clinical and/or academic career in hematopathology.

Missouri, Washington University School of Medicine-Neuropathology
Position open for 2010
The Neuropathology Division at Washington University has a longstanding program dedicated to providing excellence in clinical service, research, and teaching. The fellowship position is one of the few in the country to consistently fill and it has been accredited for over 25 years. Our faculty includes nationally and internationally recognized experts with a wide range of both clinical and basic research interests, particularly neoplastic, neurodegenerative, peripheral nerve, and muscle neuropathology. The goal of the neuropathology training program is to prepare our fellows for all aspects of a highly successful career in academic neuropathology. One new fellow is accepted into the program each year.
At least two years of prior postgraduate training are required. Preference is given to individuals with two years of anatomic pathology training. The program requires a two-year commitment. During the first year, concentration is directed to the diagnostic aspects of neuropathology. In this period, the fellow gains familiarity with both common and rare neuropathological diseases, morphologic diagnosis, and ancillary techniques, such as immunohistochemistry, electron microscopy, and molecular diagnostics. Approximately 2000 specimens come through the clinical service each year, including autopsy, surgical, and consultation material.
The second year is primarily for research. A wide spectrum of both clinical and neuroscience research opportunities exist within the division and the medical school environment. The second year offers the individual a chance to begin or expand upon a specific area of investigation with the aim of developing a viable, ongoing research program. Some fellows have extended their time in the lab and the program can be tailored to individual needs depending on the candidate’s long-term career goals, availability of an appropriate mentor, and funding. Prior fellows from Washington University have uniformly passed their Neuropathology Boards, secured desirable faculty positions, and pursued successful careers.
