Maternal-Fetal Medicine Fellowship program is designed to train physicians to
be the educators and leaders in the field of maternal-fetal medicine in the
21st century. The three-year program fulfills the objectives of the American
Board of Obstetrics and Gynecology "Guide to Learning in
Maternal-Fetal Medicine." Graduates
will be eligible for subspecialty certification in maternal-fetal medicine.
The three-year curriculum consists of 12 months of clinical rotations
and 20 months of protected research time. In addition, there are four months
of elective time permitting fellows to tailor their educational experience to
fit their interests. Unique opportunities exist to permit fellows to pursue
intensive training in ultrasound, prenatal diagnosis, intrauterine fetal
therapy, and clinical research in ultrasound, neonatal neurosonography, and an
international health component. Fellows may obtain the advanced degree of Master of Public Health from the
Boonshoft School of Medicine.
The Maternal-Fetal Medicine Fellowship program began in 2007
and received accreditation by the American Board of Obstetrics and Gynecology
in April 2008. The first fellow will commence training in July 2008 and is
scheduled to graduate in 2011. The program is currently accepting applications
for 2009 and will participate in the National Resident Matching Program
subspecialty match. The application deadline is August 1, 2008. Interviews will
be conducted in August and September. To apply, please download, fill out and
return the signed Fellowship Application along with the supporting documentation. For questions about the application, please contact Loretta Christon at (937) 208-2294 or llchriston@mvh.org.
