Robotics & Technology Research Fellowship Boston Children's Hospital Harvard Medical SchoolDepartment of UrologyOne year. Funded. Flexible start time (March/April/May 2013). The robotics research fellowship offers a well-rounded and in-depth exposure to both translational and clinical urology research as well as the opportunity to coordinate the robotics research and training center. With the only da Vinci robot dedicated to research and training in Massachusetts and an advanced animal surgical facility, this is a unique environment allowing for innovation and discovery of new robotic surgical applications using animal models. The fellow will also be trained to serve as a da Vinci robotics training specialist, hosting live animal training sessions for visiting surgeons. In addition to robotic research, the fellow will coordinate and oversee approximately 40 active research projects in the areas of technology development, novel medication administration, telemedicine, patient-centered care, and outcomes research. Additional opportunities include industry/biotechnology collaborations, NIH grant writing, research protocol writing, journal publication, conference presentations, and weekly pediatric urology grand rounds/radiology conferences. If you are looking for a phenomenal and unique learning opportunity, as well as the chance to improve your CV for residency application, please contact: Hiep T. Nguyen, MD Pediatric Urologist, Boston Children's Hospital Assistant Professor in Surgery (Urology), Harvard Medical School Director of Robotic Surgery and Research Rose Zimmerman Mandell Chair in Innovative Urological Technology Email hiep.nguyen@childrens.harvard.edu for more information. Please include your CV and a short paragraph statement regarding your goals and interest in urology research.

Who is this fellowship directed at? Third year medical students or who? Is there any requirements? Just was curious
This fellowship is directed to fourth year medical students who will be graduating from medical school and applying to urology during the upcoming match cycle (2015 Match). Traditionally, selected fellows have been students who did not match into urology, are interested in improving their qualifications and reapplying during the following match cycle.To apply, please forward a short paragraph statement of your interest, a copy of your ERAS application and CV, and a letter of recommendation to hiep.nguyen@childrens.harvard.edu .
