Didactics and Curriculum

To keep our Fellows informed of latest topics and research, we offer the opportunity to attend a wide variety of local and national meetings, conferences, and training programs.

Other Fellowships and Training Programs – The ID Fellowship may be combined with other Johns Hopkins programs to build upon individual interests and career goals:

Joint ID and Clinical Pharmacology Fellowship Training Program

The fellowship training program in Clinical Pharmacology is designed primarily to address the widely recognized shortage of well-trained physician scientists who conduct hands-on studies in humans.

Medical Microbiology Fellowship Training Program

A one- to two-year program in which the microbiology fellow participates in extended rotations through each area of the laboratory, including Bacteriology, Mycology, Mycobacteriology, Virology, Parasitology, and Molecular Diagnostics. Fellows regularly consult in matters related to patient care. Fellows are encouraged to pursue individual research projects in conjunction with faculty members.

Graduate Training Program in Clinical Investigation

Participants gain the skills necessary to design and conduct clinical investigations of emerging medical treatments and technologies, and to apply new diagnostic techniques and approaches to the study of human pathophysiology.

Individualized Course Work

With some limitations, postdoctoral fellows may register for courses for credit without being subject to tuition charges in the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine and the Bloomberg School of Public Health (16-credit limit). In addition, many courses may be audited. Please review Postdoctoral Fellow Course Registration Procedures.
