Global Surgery Research Fellowship

Fellowship Description

The Center for Global Surgery offers several research fellowship positions within the Department of Surgery at the University of Utah to advance its vision of increasing access to safe, effective, and affordable surgical care to all people around the world. The objective of the fellowship is to train future surgeons as leaders and innovators, and to give them tools and new ways of thinking that promote increased surgical capacity, high-quality health services research, and advocacy for the neglected surgical patient around the world. The learning objectives of the fellowship curriculum encompass themes of education, research, innovation, and advocacy.

Fellowship Goals

  1. To train future leaders in the field of global surgery who will advance the delivery of cost-effective surgical care around the world.
  2. To equip clinical researchers with the skillset to rigorously evaluate and improve health care interventions – be they process improvement, biotechnology devices, or education.
  3. To foster the creativity necessary to identify novel solutions for the current and future challenges in global surgery.
  4. To build a sustainable network of collaborators who are willing to partner and collaborate towards a common task of improving global health.

Eligibility & Funding

The Center for Global Surgery provides an opportunity for Fellows from outside institutions to participate through cost-sharing.  The Center for Global Surgery will provide its top candidate with 50% of funding to match 50% of funding from other sources (e.g., the applicant’s home sponsoring program, personal funds, or external funding). This funding opportunity is available to support one position and includes PGY-level appropriate salary and benefits, travel expenses, and tuition.
General surgery residents with at least 2 years of clinical training and in good standing within their residency program are invited to apply for the fellowship.
