Our Head and Neck / Endocrine Pathology Fellowship trains one fellow over the course of a year, offering an unparalleled opportunity to interact with leading head and neck surgeons and oncologists in clinical care and research at The Multidisciplinary Head, Neck, and Thyroid Center, a Center of Excellence at Mount Sinai.
As a trainee, you are actively involved in clinical patient care, teaching, and research. You will subsequently be exposed to a wealth of clinical material (in patient and consultation cases) within the Department of Head and Neck and Thyroid Surgery. Through our collaboration with Dr. Mark Urken and the THANC Foundation, you will be afforded unique opportunities to council patients regarding their pathology reports and participate in clinicopathological translational research projects.
Curriculum
Clinical duties of the fellowship include the workup of consultation cases, supervision of residents on the service, consultation in the frozen section, participation in the sign-out of clinical cases, and presentation of cases at the ENT tumor board.
Educational duties include didactic and case-based presentations at pathology and clinical conferences, organizing a monthly journal club, and participating in training the residents and medical students rotating on the service.
Research
Fellows may participate in ongoing research projects on Quantitative Pathology and Machine Learning, in collaboration with Dr. Scott Doyle, PhD. They may develop or join collaborative research projects with other clinical and research departments, culminating in scholarly contributions to medical literature.
