Hematology and Medical Oncology Fellowship
Our mission is to produce leaders in the field of hematology and oncology. This means training the most clinically competent hematologists and oncologists with the goal of producing leaders in basic science research, clinical research, and clinical care. Our graduates of the last 10 years are almost split down the middle with half having gone onto academic careers and half into private practice. Our primary site is the Huntsman Cancer Institute, an NCI-designated Comprehensive Cancer Center that serves as the primary cancer center of the Mountain West region. Adjacent to University of Utah Hospital, both medical centers sit in the foothills of the spectacular Wasatch Front Mountains, overlooking the Salt Lake valley.
