PEDIATRIC ENDOCRINOLOGY & DIABETES FELLOWSHIP PROGRAM The UAB Pediatric Endocrinology Fellowship Program consists of a three-year comprehensive experience that incorporates clinical care, research activities and evidence-based learning. Our ACGME-accredited program accepts a total of six fellows. Our curriculum is a balance of inpatient and outpatient clinic rotations with ample time devoted to developing research and/or career interest. Clinical management of outpatient and inpatient endocrine disorders is the emphasis of the first year of training. The second and third years are devoted to pursuing research opportunities in an area of basic or clinical research under the supervision of a faculty preceptor. Fellows are encouraged to participate in other institutional clinical experiences here at UAB, including genetics, reproductive endocrinology and adult endocrinology. Research experiences are available through our division or vast resources here at UAB. These research opportunities may include basic science, clinical or transitional research, as well as projects in medical education. In addition to diabetes and general endocrine clinics, we participate in multidisciplinary clinics, such as Turner Syndrome Clinic, Metabolic Bone Disorders Clinic, Gender Dysphoria, Obesity Clinic and CFRD clinics. Other subspecialty clinics include Newborn Screen Clinic, High-risk Diabetes Clinic, Type 2 Diabetes Clinic, PCOS, Metabolic Bone Disorders Clinic, Thyroid Nodule Clinic and • Invited speaker: University of Mississippi, grand rounds on pediatric dyslipidemia. • Invited speaker: Plenary session: Pediatric Lipid Disorders, AKMG Toronto.
