Fellowship Research

Neonatology Fellows are encouraged to pursue their Research Education with an experience in clinical research and laboratory-based research. The scope and involvement in each type of research, however, will depend on their research interests and career plans. Those choosing to emphasize basic science research should have a clinical research experience of limited nature and visa versa. Optimally, the clinical and basic science projects will be complementary, encouraging the Fellow to develop an in-depth understanding of a specific area of research.  Areas of research and research mentors will be selected from amongst the Neonatology faculty in research, the Pediatric Faculty outside of Neonatology or, less frequently, the Faculty of other University of Rochester departments. It is anticipated that these scholarly activities will be brought to presentation by the Fellows at national meetings and in published manuscripts.
