They can spend the remaining 2 months at large urban trauma centers in Chicago with high rates of penetrating trauma. Fellows will average overnight trauma call once per week while on service at main campus. Teaching conferences include trauma service morning report, M&M, and Surgical Grand Rounds. Fellows will work with regionally and nationally recognized leaders in trauma, critical care, burns, and emergency general surgery with years of experience in both military and civilian trauma. Faculty can provide many opportunities for fellows to integrate into the acute care surgery community, including involvement at national and regional societies, opportunities for scholarship, and career guidance. Fellows will be monitored by these experienced faculty at the beginning of fellowship with the anticipation for early progression to independence within the first 3-6 months. Assigned faculty are available for review and consultation on rounds, in operative cases, and while on call. Unique to our fellowship is the opportunity for global experiences and practicing in austere environments. Our fellows learn how to manage with the available resources outside urban or quaternary centers. Fellows will have the opportunity to develop advanced skills in point of care ultrasound including national certification, and specialized concentrations in trauma system management or research are available.
