With the number of annual anesthetics exceeding 40,000, this fellowship provides superior training to the next generation, while advancing standards of care for people with cancer throughout the world.  Trainees will gain expertise in the perioperative care of the cancer patient. The fellow may administer anesthesia under the direct supervision of an attending physician or in a supervisory role of a housestaff officer with an overseeing attending.  Elective time is offered according to the trainee’s interest. In addition, the fellow will have one non-clinical day a week for clinical research with the goal of presenting at national meetings and eventual publication of work in peer-reviewed journals.  Educational activities include journal club, M&M, lectures and courses in introductory biostatistics.  This fellowship prepares physicians for leadership roles in the care of people with cancer around the world.
