University of Miami / Jackson Memorial Hospital
H/N Selective Pathology Fellowship
Opening for 2022-2023

Description: The Head and Neck (H/N) Selective Pathology Fellowship is a one-year ACGME-approved position designed to provide advanced in-depth training in H/N pathology. The Fellow will be an integral member of the University of Miami H/N Pathology Service and will work closely with the H/N pathology specialty faculty as well as the University of Miami Department of Otolaryngology, a renowned program consistently top ranked by the US News and World Report. Their strong surgical presence on campus affords a large H/N surgical pathology case volume with complex, unique and interesting cases daily.

The pathology laboratory located at the University of Miami Hospital receives and processes over 1000 H/N surgical specimens from the operating rooms, and over 875 H/N surgical specimens from the UM Sylvester Comprehensive Cancer Center. The JMH pathology laboratory receives approximately 350 H/N surgical specimens a year, ranging from diagnostic biopsies to large complex resections that include oral maxillofacial resections. An integral part of both H/N Surgery and the practice of Pathology is the use of intraoperative frozen sections. The H/N surgical cases typically require multiple frozen sections, accounting for approximately 4300 individual frozen sections performed and diagnosed annually.

The fellowship curriculum includes core training in the management of the daily sign out of cases ranging from the routine to the complex. A “hot-seat” rotation in intraoperative H/N frozen sections is a valuable component of the curriculum. Elective rotations, opportunities for clinical and translational research are also available. The Fellow is primarily responsible for the consultative services and the multidisciplinary clinical-pathological conferences. The fellow is expected to participate in the academic activities of the Pathology Department, including Journal Club, Grand Rounds, resident conferences, and publish at least one paper in a peer reviewed journal.

Requirements: Applicant must be Board eligible or certified in Anatomic/Clinical Pathology or Anatomic Pathology.

Facilities: Jackson Memorial Hospital (JMH), Sylvester Comprehensive Cancer Center (SCCC) and University of Miami Hospital and Clinics (UMHC).

Stipends: Commensurate with the applicant’s year of postgraduate training.

Staff: Carmen Gomez-Fernandez MD; O. Oleksandr Kryvenko MD; Jaylou Velez-Torres, MD

Application: Applications should be submitted by October 31 (20 months prior to start date) via email to pathology.fellowships@miami.edu. Candidates should submit the CAP Standardized Application, curriculum vitae and three letters of recommendation. Letters of recommendation should be addressed to the Program Director.
