Fellowships
The University of Pittsburgh Department of Medicine offers fellowships in 11 different
sub-specialty areas. Each division has an extremely active research program and Shadyside
residents have historically participated with subsequent publications and presentations at
national meetings. Rotations on the Oakland campus provide our residents opportunities to be
mentored by nationally recognized faculty. Despite the increasing competitive nature of
fellowships, Shadyside residents have been successful in gaining fellowships in all
sub-specialties, listed here.
