Arkansas, Arkana Laboratories-Renal

Arkana Laboratories - Renal Pathology Fellowship Opening for 2022-2023

The Arkana renal pathology fellowship is a one-year program designed to train a well-rounded academic renal pathologist. With more than 18,000 medical kidney biopsies each year (native and transplant) and 15 full-time renal pathologists from different training backgrounds, Arkana provides an unparalleled resource for training. We foster an environment in which every trainee can become an expert in diagnostic renal pathology, developing a full understanding of the lesions which can be seen in medical kidney disease.

Because it is important for a renal pathologist to be able to design and carry out academic research, fellows will learn how to develop a research project, write a manuscript, and navigate the peer-reviewed medical literature submissions process. These projects can be developed utilizing our vast renal biopsy archive as well as the resources of the Arkana Biorepository. Our fellows are encouraged to participate in national meetings, engage in social media outlets, and develop leadership skills that will serve them throughout their careers.

Our fellowship is designed to maximize learning and minimize extraneous "scut work" without educational value. Fellows are welcome to work on projects on the weekend but there is no weekend on-call responsibility in fellowship year. Above all, we are proud of providing a warm and supportive environment with a staff of pathologists eager to help fellows immediately step into a full-time renal pathology position upon successful completion of the program.
