Programs for Fellows

Fellows (MD)

One of the unique advantages of pediatric fellowship training at Emory and Children’s is a common core curriculum for all fellows irrespective of subspecialty. The first year of the common curriculum includes the FIRsT (Fellows Introduction to Research Training) course.

  • FIRsT provides pediatric fellows with an overview and introduction to clinical and translational research in the academic setting.
  • Didactic sessions, panel discussions, and interactive opportunities provide forums for fellows to gain an appreciation of the fundamentals of clinical and translational research, biostatistics, epidemiology, the research enterprise, and practical and applied aspects of conducting research.
  • The course is held over a 20-hour period, comprised of 4-hour sessions for 5 days during the fall.
  • Please visit the Emory Department of Pediatrics Core Fellowship Curriculum page for more information about this and other core pediatric fellowship courses.

All MD and MD/PhD fellows within the Emory Department of Pediatrics or in an academic department within the Emory+Children's Pediatric Institute are eligible to apply for funding to support research projects through the Warshaw Fellow Research Award. This award provides up to $5,000 over a one or two year period for an independent, hypothesis-driven research project.

Fellows (PhD)

Emory School of Medicine has one of the largest and most comprehensive programs for postdoctoral training in the country. Our postdocs have access to a strong network of support services and partnering organizations throughout the Atlanta biomedical community. Please visit the Office of Postdoctoral Training for more information.
