Each fellow will be expected to complete a minimum of two research projects during his or her fellowship for submission for publication or for presentation at a national meeting. Fellows will also have opportunity to teach and present workshops on global surgery topics to students and other residents. To maintain their clinical skills, fellows have the option to assist in covering the pediatric surgery service and take call in rotation with other surgical residents on pediatric surgery not more frequently than every 4th night and one weekend per month averaged over a month during their time in Chicago.

Oregon Health & Science UniversityDate Posted: February 2, 2023
The Pancreatic Surgeon Research Training Fellowship is offered by the Brenden-Colson Center for Pancreatic Care (BCCPC) at OHSU. The purpose of this fellowship is to train surgeons (who have completed their residency) in translational research focusing on diseases that involve the pancreas. The ideal candidate would be a surgeon with fellowship training focused on hepatopancreaticobiliary diseases and has yet to established clinical or scientific independence. Over a twelve-month intensive, goal oriented basic and translational training experience, the trainee will emerge with an active independent line of investigation and with accompanying highly vetted grant applications. The goal of this program is to assist in the career maturation of surgeon-scientists by facilitating success at the current stage of greatest attrition. Of those advanced trainees with a career in being an independent investigator, the path to acquiring independent funding remains precarious. By launching new surgeon-scientist careers that focus on malignant and benign pancreatic disease, we ultimately aim to advance durably the understanding of pancreatic biology, disease, and therapies beyond an individual project grant. Fellows will be placed in a pancreatic disease research lab and mentored to develop their own projects and work towards applications for external funding. Training components may include journal clubs, physician shadowing, OHSU School of Medicine cancer courses, or grand rounds.FY24 Award Opportunities:

While working with them, I felt like I was given the independence to create my own treatment plans while seeing patients. This played a key role in helping me gain confidence to work independently in the real world. Without any doubt, I can say that this is the place where I grew a lot as an independent and confident physician.”
