Hematopathology / Hematology Fellowship
Opening for 2023 - 2024
Description: The Hematopathology Section of the Department of Pathology and Immunology at Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis has an opening for fellowship year beginning in 2023. We offer a one-year clinical fellowship for qualified applicants. This service includes adult and pediatric hematopathology, flow cytometry including Minimal Residual Disease (MRD) testing and exposure to molecular and cytogenetics laboratory testing in hematopoietic malignancies. Approximately 3 months of assigned elective time is provided to cover benign/wet hematology, performance of bone marrow biopsy procedure, research, molecular diagnostics, genomics and/or cytogenetics.
The large referral quaternary care and urban hospital system associated with Washington University in St. Louis provides a broad range of cases comprising ~3500 in-house marrows (cores and aspirates), ~1500 lymph nodes and other surgical and non-surgical specimens, and ~1000 consult cases per year. The Adult and Pediatric Bone Marrow Transplant services together perform more than 400 transplants annually. Due to the high volume and diversity of cases, the fellows 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 an increasingly independent approach to case work-up is encouraged. The fellow is regarded as the initial pathologist on all cases and is expected to write pathology reports integrating morphologic description and all ancillary studies (immunohistochemistry, flow cytometry, molecular and cytogenetic testing results). The fellow is seen as the primary contact for referring physicians and will work closely with the clinical hematology and/or oncology fellows and faculty, gaining insights into the clinical management of patients.
The fellows present weekly at the lymphoma and bone marrow transplant conferences, monthly at cytogenetics and molecular correlation conferences, and at journal clubs assigned to them. The fellows are expected to participate in hematopathology-related translational projects for which funding is available. Trainees with strong basic research interests can opt to be a part of a stimulating and collegial research community with top-notch facilities and resources as their future goals. Exposure to next generation sequencing data analysis of targeted cancer genes associated with hematologic malignancies can be obtained during the elective time, if the fellow desires additional clinical exposure to this evolving field of molecular hematology.
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, clinical, 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.
Requirements: Applicants must be Board eligible or certified in anatomic and/or clinical pathology. To apply, submit all materials via our website online application system.
1. Online application.
2. CV with names of 3 references.
3. Three letters directly mailed and/or emailed by your references to the program.

Vanderbilt University Medical Center
Nashville, Tennessee
Openings for 2023
The Vanderbilt University Medical Center Hematopathology Fellowship Program has an opening for a one-year fellowship starting July 2023 that includes adult and pediatric hematopathology, flow cytometry, cytogenetics, and molecular pathology as well as coagulation, wet hematology, and benign hematology.
Vanderbilt is at the very cutting edge of incorporating advanced diagnostics into patient care. Through innovative technological interfaces with the electronic medical record, the hematopathologist can quickly review a patient’s history and previous lab results to direct the entire panel of lab tests that need to be ordered for every patient receiving a bone marrow biopsy. Once the results from the cytogenetic, molecular and flow cytometry reports are available, they are incorporated into an over-arching comprehensive report that includes not only diagnostic information but also specifies prognosis and optimal methods for minimal residual disease detection. This suite of services integrating the ordering and interpretation of morphologic and laboratory data is the Diagnostic Management Team (DMT). Through the hematologic malignancy DMT project, the pathologist guides clinical decision-making and effective test utilization in diagnosing and treating hematologic disorders.
The division evaluates approximately 5,400 Hematopathology cases including 3,000 in-house bone marrows, 550 in-house tissue biopsies, 1,000 body fluids, and 1,100 consults/referrals, as well as over 5,000 flow cytometry cases per year from Vanderbilt Hospital and Monroe Carell Jr. Children's Hospital at Vanderbilt and an additional 900 morphology cases and nearly 1,000 flow cytometry cases per year from the VA Tennessee Valley Healthcare System.

Baylor Scott & White Hospital and Clinic
Hematopathology / Clinical Informatics Fellowships
Openings for July 2021-June 2022
Description: The Baylor Scott and White Healthcare Department of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine and the Texas A&M College of Medicine offer a one-year fellowship in hematopathology. The program has the goal of training individuals who will, after completion of the program, be able to direct a hematology laboratory; consult with clinicians on hematopathology; have the morphologic expertise to accurately render hematologic diagnosis on any appropriate specimens, including lymph nodes, spleen, bone marrow aspirate/biopsies, and properly interpret peripheral smears. The program will prepare them to qualify and successfully complete the American Board of Pathology Hematology Board certification examination. The fellow will be exposed to routine and special hematology testing, routine and special coagulation testing, cytochemistry, histochemistry, flow cytometry, cytogenetics and molecular techniques as they apply to the diagnosis and differential diagnosis of hematologic malignancies. All these tests are performed in our core laboratory in Temple. The morphologic evaluation of peripheral smears, bone marrow aspirates and biopsies, lymph node and other tissue biopsies for the diagnosis of hematologic malignancies are part of the daily activity and are obtained from all of the regional hospitals and clinics in the Central Texas Division of the Baylor Scott and White Healthcare system. The program emphasizes the practical aspects of the hematopathology practice in regard to morphologic skills, laboratory management and clinical consultation.
Also, we are happy to announce that our institution has been approved by the ACGME for a Clinical Informatics Fellowship, effective academic calendar year 2021-2022. Hematopathology candidates are invited to apply concurrently for the Clinical Informatics fellowship. Concurrent enrollment requires successful application to both training programs, and fellows who complete a combined program will be eligible for board certification by the American Board of Pathology in both Hematopathology and Clinical Informatics after a two-year period of training.
Requirements: Completed training in combined anatomic and clinical pathology. All applicants must pass USMLE Steps 1 and 2 before entering any Scott & White GME program and must pass Step 3 before completing the first year of residency or fellowship training. Foreign medical graduates are required to have an ECFMG certificate. Scott & White sponsors only the J1 Visa for those individuals who require a visa in order to be work-authorized.
Facilities: The Baylor Scott & White Healthcare system-Central Texas Division is an integrated system very conducive to such exposure because of the complex practice involving over 1200 physicians, including primary care and specialists and a system that includes 17 hospitals or hospital partners and more than 140 clinic locations throughout Central Texas. The fellowship is based in Temple which is the location of the core laboratory for the system.
