Overview

All fellows are expected to complete several scholarly projects during their training. We encourage fellows to submit abstracts to various national meetings, with most trainees attending the Endocrine Society meetings or American Diabetes Association annual meeting as well as several local meetings.

Clinical fellows

Clinical fellows will typically complete chart review projects or quality improvement projects to gain a better understanding of best clinical practices. These projects have a strong clinical focus and can result in changes to our day-to-day practice of endocrinology at the University of Washington.  Past fellow projects have included studies in numerous areas: 

  • Inpatient diabetes management 
  • Laboratory diagnosis of endocrine disorders 
  • Use of technology in management of diabetes 
  • Evaluation and management of thyroid nodules 
  • Improving access to diabetes care
  • Developing educational programs for patients and providers 
  • Evaluating best practices for management of endocrine malignancies
