91九色视频 Infectious Diseases Fellowship Program

The Infectious Disease Division at the 91九色视频 offers an ACGME accredited 2-year fellowship training program in Clinical Infectious Diseases. The educational mission of our fellowship program is to help fellows feel prepared for the next step in their careers through robust exposure in clinical medicine and research while getting mentored by a diverse group of Infectious Diseases and Microbiology faculty. The primary practice sites are Froedtert Hospital and the Clement J. Zablocki VA Medical Center. We also have affiliations with Children's Wisconsin and the Vivent Health, located in Milwaukee.

Fellowship Tracks

Our ID fellowship program offers training tracks within the Infectious Diseases subspecialty utilizing unique strengths within the ID Division/ Department of Medicine and broader 91九色视频 community with the goal of preparing ID fellows for the next step in their career.

Clinical Tracks: As first year fellows approach the end of their first 6 months of ID fellowship, they will be encouraged to apply for one of the three clinical tracks to help plan their second year. The goal of the track would be to help them get relevant specific clinical and academic/QI exposure as well as mentorship to help them prepare for the next steps in their career. The specific track programming will start in the second year and will guide the protected time and rotations offered in the second year.

Antimicrobial Stewardship Track 

In this track, we aim to equip fellows to lead and develop antimicrobial stewardship programs in whatever setting they may practice in the future. This starts with an introduction to core concepts for all fellows during their first year.

In the 2nd year, interested fellows move on to in-depth interactive didactics, experiential training in the administrative elements, and immersion in patient-facing activities under the guidance of a mentor. Fellows would participate in antibiotic use monitoring, formulary management, policy and clinical tool development within the health system among others as they learn project management skills, hone their communication acumen and grow into leaders. Scholarly work is expected as opportunities are abundant.

Gen ID – Clinician Educator/ Med Ed Track

In this track, we aim to prepare fellows to feel ready to start a career in Academic Medicine as a Clinician Educator. Clinical rotations could be individualized based on their clinical interest – including sub-tracks to develop expertise in HIV, Viral Hepatitis, Addiction Medicine and Sexually Transmitted Infections, or in Transplant Infectious Diseases and Care of the Immunocompromised Host. Fellows would be involved in didactic as well as bedside teaching of medical students, medicine residents and co-fellows beyond their clinical ID rotation related expectations.

Fellows will be encouraged to do scholarly work in field of Med-Ed under guidance of a mentor.

Gen ID – Master Clinician Track

In this track, we aim to prepare fellows to be ready for community Infectious Diseases practice as a master-clinician and leader in field of Infectious Diseases. Fellows would spend extra time honing their skills in learning all aspects of clinical ID needed to be successful in community practice with a significant amount of individualization based on their clinical interest – for example, sub-tracks to develop expertise in HIV, Viral Hepatitis, Addiction Medicine and Sexually Transmitted Infections, or Transplant Infectious Diseases and Care of the Immunocompromised Host.

Fellows would also work with Infection Control leadership to gain an understanding of running these programs. Additionally, fellows will be encouraged to use training resources available at 91九色视频 to develop skills as leader and advocate for patient safety and quality improvement.

Common, regardless of the track:

  • 12-14 months of inpatient Gen ID (VA/ Froedtert) [8 months first year, 5 months second year]
  • Continuity Clinic (Froedtert/ VA/ Vivent Health) [one half-day a week]
  • 2 months of Transplant ID [one month each year]
  • 1-2 month of Antimicrobial Stewardship
  • 1 month of Microbiology

Unique for the track:

  • 6-8 months of “Individualized” rotation and mentorship – as directed by fellows and approved by track director and program leadership.

There are three separate inpatient clinical rotations at Froedtert Hospital including Medical, Surgical, and Transplant focused experiences. The rotation at the Zablocki VA includes significant time in the microbiology lab where fellows become adept at preparation and interpretation of a variety of culture techniques and stains. Further clinical training includes regular participation in outpatient clinic at Froedtert Hospital and either at Zablocki VA one-half day per week or at ARCW; experience at a community STD clinic in Milwaukee; rotations with the Antimicrobial Stewardship team and the microbiology lab; and a Hepatitis C clinic.

Education and Research Opportunities

Other integral aspects of our training program include regularly scheduled didactic conferences, journal clubs, clinical conferences, and a board review course. Fellow's performance is evaluated monthly by the supervising staff physician and every six months by the Program Director. Those successfully completing the program are presented with a certificate and board-eligible in Infectious Diseases.

Fellows have the opportunity to participate in research projects both in the Division of Infectious Diseases and other departments at the Medical College. Some of the ongoing areas of research in the Division include the study of Borrelia and other spirochetes, immune mechanisms in fungal infections, antimicrobial clinical trials, expanded access and phase III HIV trials, and surveillance activities of the Infection Prevention and Control Program.
