With support from program leadership and dedicated mentors, each fellow develops an individualized career development plan aligned with their research interests and long-term career goals.
First Year (F-1)
During the first year, fellows focus on building a strong foundation in clinical knowledge and skills through core curriculum rotations. Fellows also participate in faculty-led discussions on career development within hematology and oncology as part of the conference series.
By the end of the first year, each fellow will:
-
Identify a primary faculty mentor
-
Begin outlining a personalized career development plan
Ongoing Mentorship and Support
Throughout fellowship training, faculty mentors provide guidance, support, and opportunities for collaboration to help fellows achieve their goals. Mentors assist fellows in:
-
Establishing professional connections
-
Tracking progress toward career objectives
-
Adjusting goals as needed
Program leadership and faculty mentors review each fellow’s progress, career development, and scholarly activity every six months. These reviews help identify areas for continued growth and ensure fellows remain on track to meet their goals.
Available Resources
Fellows have access to a wide range of resources at the division, department, and institutional levels. These resources are designed to support diverse career paths within hematology and oncology.
Through ongoing discussions with program leadership and core faculty, fellows are guided in selecting the resources and opportunities that best support their individual career development plans.
