a year in the life
What the year looks like
Tuesday Division Conference
Protected 4-hour conference: fellow education, QA image review, research updates, and an administrative meeting.
Wednesday Faculty Rounds
Dedicated faculty scan rounds to develop image acquisition, clinical integration, procedures, and advanced pathology.
Alternating roles
Administrative Fellow ↔ Educational Fellow on a monthly basis. Own QA, billing, committees, social media, and the image library.
Administrative experience
Learn what it takes to run an ultrasound program from the inside: departmental ultrasound operations meetings, machine cleaning and maintenance, new-equipment demos, credentialing, and the day-to-day processes that keep a multi-site division running.
Research
IRB-submitted project with a structured timeline, plus a first-author national abstract before you graduate.
Teaching
Residency lectures, medical student simulation, SonoGames coaching, weekly pearls, and monthly USGIV nursing sessions.
Graded QA autonomy
Start reviewing images side-by-side with faculty, then earn progressive independence. By graduation, you QA studies on your own — ready to run your own program's QA from day one.
Fellowship Collaborative
Monthly sessions with a regional ultrasound teaching collaborative of 9 fellowship programs — 13 fellows, 25 faculty educators, a speaking coach, and a shared lecture series. Your network extends far beyond our faculty before you graduate.
