Our training is focused on developing clinical practitioners in diabetes and endocrinology, but a research experience is also required. Six months of your training are dedicated to research, along with projects in quality and improvement and patient safety.
The research experience, linked with didactic teaching and independent learning activities, will prepare the trainee to meet the challenges of rapidly changing technology and new bodies of knowledge.
For fellows primarily directed towards clinical practice and teaching, the research experience will serve as a foundation for a critical appreciation of how new knowledge becomes a part of medical practice. For all fellows, our collective experience is that research, whether basic or clinical, is a stimulating and rewarding experience.
