Division of Endocrinology - Education

Education

Medical School

  • Endocrinology provides a major teaching segment in Pathophysiology of Disease to second year medical students, as part of the Introduction to Clinical Science Course (ICS).

  • We offer elective rotations in "Clinical Endocrinology" for junior and senior medical students.

 

Residency Training

  • We offer elective rotations in "Clinical Endocrinology" for Internal Medicine residents at R1, R2, and R3 years.

  • We offer "Adult Endocrinology" experience for fellows in Reproductive Endocrinology.

 

Endocrinology Fellowship Program

The Program highlight an interdisciplinary neuroendocrine training program that combines endocrinology, neurosurgery, and pathology. This program benefits from our pituitary disease referral center. The program also has an interdisciplinary thyroid and parathyroid diseases initiative that involves nuclear medicine, endocrinology, and ENT. Endocrine fellows receive training in ultrasound guided thyroid biopsy, DEXA scans, thyroid and parathyroid imaging and insulin pump and CGM management.

  • We offer a 2-year ACGME accredited Endocrinology Fellowship Program leading to ABIM Subspecialty Boards in Endocrinology, Diabetes and Metabolic Diseases. The program has maintained full ACGME accreditation for more than 20 years.

 

Graduate Medical Education (GME)

This Endocrine Division provides GME activities through our Medical Grand Rounds program and through our New Jersey Chapter of the American Association of Clinical Endocrinology (AACE).  GME programs include invited speakers and an Annual NJ AACE Symposium that hosts national experts in a wide variety of Endocrine related fields.  Moreover, our NJ AACE Chapter hosts a fellows case conference that is a highlight for our participants where our senior fellows from each of the two medical schools presents an unusual case and discussion for our audience.  Our Endocrine fellows are encouraged during their training program to seek out additional GME activities throughout the greater New York metropolitan area since this is an excellent resource for advanced learning.
