Faculty and fellows in the Division of Pediatric Endocrinology are active participants in all educational activities, including resident education at UPMC Children’s Hospital of Pittsburgh and medical student education at the University of Pittsburgh.
Educational activities include didactic lectures, problem-based learning sessions, and board review. Fellows will also attend our weekly Pediatric Endocrine Research Conference presented by local or invited speakers, Pediatric Endocrine Clinical Conferences presented by faculty and fellows, monthly Pediatric Endocrine Journal Club, weekly Combined University Adult/Pediatric Endocrine Conference, and weekly Pediatric Grand Rounds.
Instruction in basic science techniques and clinical research, such as research design, bioethics and biostatistics, are offered through a course organized for all fellows at UPMC Children’s Hospital and can be supplemented by additional course work at the University of Pittsburgh Graduate School of Public Health and the Institute of Clinical Research Education.
