The Infectious Diseases Fellowship at The Mount Sinai Hospital provides comprehensive training in the principles and practice of infectious diseases to prepare our fellows to thrive in careers in clinical practice, research, medical education, public health, and more. The two-year program offers extremely diverse training opportunities in general infectious diseases, emerging infectious diseases, HIV, hospital epidemiology, infections in immigrant health, microbiology, transplant infectious diseases, antimicrobial stewardship, viral hepatitis, and infections in settings of incarceration.
Additionally, a structured research program provides mentored research training tailored to each fellow’s specific interests. Our program provides fellows with opportunities across the continuum of basic science, translational, and clinical research. Research opportunities within the Mount Sinai Health System continue to evolve and expand with increasing collaborations with other departments, the Infectious Diseases Clinical Translational Research Center, and the Institute for Advanced Medicine (IAM). Fellows interested in transplant infectious disease also have the option to participate in our Transplant Infectious Diseases Track during the second year of fellowship. This track provides fellows with an extensive and focused clinical and research experience in transplant infectious diseases.
