Hematology/Oncology Fellowship Program

In addition to general hematology, the Division provides specialized training in medical oncology with a focus on lymphoma, leukemia, and myeloid cancers, as well as in classical hematology, including inherited disorders and coagulopathies. Fellows also have opportunities for advanced training in plasma cell disorders, stem cell transplantation and cellular therapy, and experimental therapeutics. Clinical rotations offer broad exposure to hematologic and oncologic diseases in both inpatient and outpatient settings at the NCI-designated Sylvester Comprehensive Cancer Center, University of Miami Hospital, and Jackson Memorial Hospital. Fellows interested in becoming physician-scientists may pursue laboratory training with distinguished faculty in the Divisions of Hematology, Medical Oncology, and Stem Cell Transplantation and Cellular Therapy, as well as with numerous affiliated faculty engaged in basic, translational, epidemiologic, cancer control, and clinical research at the NCI-designated Sylvester Comprehensive Cancer Center.
