Mission
The fellowship-training program
in Endocrinology, Metabolism,
and Diabetes is aimed at
providing intense training
and experience such that
the fellows on graduation:
- will have the specialized,
currently accepted,
and up-to-date knowledge
and clinical skills
required to function
as a consultant in
endocrinology,
- are capable of working
in a variety of settings
- possess habits of
life-long learning
to build upon their
knowledge, skills
and professionalism.
They will be able to clinically
manage common endocrine conditions,
diabetes, metabolic syndrome,
obesity, and osteoporosis
and thyroid diseases in particular.
In addition they will be
able to manage conditions
related to hypothalamic,
pituitary adrenal, and gonadal
problems in general.
During their concomitant
research training, fellows
will be able to:
- think critically
- analyze data that
they read in journals
- formulate independent
hypotheses
- set out plans of
investigation
- carry out those
plans.
At the end of the training
program we intend to have
well trained physicians who
can do good clinical research
incorporating themes that
are both clinical and analytical
at cellular and molecular
level.
The program is of two years
duration.
The training is based at
three major
centers within
the University hospital program.
