School invites applications for our subspecialty clinical and research
fellowship in Obesity Medicine and Nutrition. This subspecialty fellowship -
the first of its kind - is designed for current residents or recent graduates of
specialty training programs in internal medicine or pediatrics who wish to
obtain subspecialty training focused in the area of Obesity Medicine. We are
currently recruiting fellows seeking to begin the fellowship program in either
July 2010 or July 2011.
This fellowship has been designed to provide trainees with expertise, clinical
experience and research training in the emerging field of Obesity Medicine, with

related metabolic disorders. Fellows will learn how to treat obesity by
nutritional, behavioral, pharmacological and surgical means, as well as how to
address the comorbidities of this disorder most effectively.
Fellowship training in Obesity Medicine and Nutrition will occur over two or
three years, depending on the experience and interest of each trainee. During
the first year, trainees will spend the majority of time in the clinical
environment learning about obesity and its comorbidities and clinical nutrition.
By the end of the first year, fellows will have a good understanding of the
physiology of body weight regulation and the research being conducted to advance
knowledge in this field. They will be able to assess a patient with obesity or
other nutritional disorders and to determine an appropriate treatment plan.
Trainees will understand and utilize standard and innovative approaches to the
treatment of obesity, including novel combination therapies, and they will
participate in clinical trials of new emerging therapies. They will be able to
complete a full pre-operative evaluation for patients with indications for
weight loss surgery and provide comprehensive post-operative medical and
nutritional care for these patients. Fellows will also develop the skills to be
competent teachers of Obesity Medicine and Nutrition to medical students and
residents in internal medicine, pediatrics and surgery. Beginning in the second
fellowship year, trainees will pursue an intensive program of relevant clinical
or basic science research that will be completed under the guidance of a member
of the Obesity Medicine and Nutrition Program faculty.
