I chose Iowa because I wanted a program where I could grow as both a clinician and a physician-scientist. The collaborative culture, dedicated mentorship, and strong research opportunities made it the ideal place to develop my clinical skills while contributing to research that advances care for children with blood disorders and cancer
Where fellows feel at home
Imagine yourself at a respected research institution, in a medium-volume program where you are exposed to a wide breadth of clinical experiences. You’re in a safe, affordable midwestern college town. The community is progressive, literary, and family-friendly. It has the conveniences–and the patients–of urban hospitals without all the stressors. If this sounds like someplace you want to be, you should apply to be our next hematology-oncology fellow.
Our program successfully recruited faculty from top tier institutions to bring the very best approaches into one place. We have recommitted our program to helping trainees build healthy, meaningful careers in pediatric hematology, oncology, and bone marrow transplantation.
Work-life balance means something here. Fellows are welcome and respected, yet are not expected to cover every service need that arises. Our clinical service can operate independently. That means you accomplish what you wish outside the hospital while you grow your career. Life won’t stop during your fellowship, and neither should you. Don’t worry – we still promise you a challenging, collaborative, and meaningful experience with robust clinical and research experiences!
