Transfusion Medicine/Clinical Informatics Fellowship

Position description

Due to the recent rapid expansion of electronic health records systems (EHRs) throughout medical practice that was promoted and accelerated by the HITECH Act of 2009, and the more general advances in data generation and analysis, there is a critical need in clinical medicine to have physicians among all specialties who have deep training in informatics. Pathology and Laboratory Medicine are highly dependent on sophisticated information systems specific to their discipline that must integrate with EHRs.

The David Geffen School of Medicine at UCLA and UCLA Health are seeking outstanding applicants for a combined two-year fellowship in Transfusion Medicine and Clinical Informatics (CI) at the University of California, Los Angeles. The program is open to pathologists only.

Recruitment for this position starts January 2.5 years prior to the start of fellowship and remains open until filled. We highly encourage those who are interested in our program to submit their complete applications early. We will review applications on a rolling basis.

Please see our website: , for detailed information on the Transfusion Medicine/Clinical Informatics fellowship.

For questions regarding the program(s), please contact the Fellowship Coordinator, Victoria Amador, vamador@mednet.ucla.edu
