For physicians who have completed their clinical year of geriatric medicine, geriatric psychiatry, or palliative medicine fellowship training, there is an opportunity for up to two additional years of academic training in geriatrics.
The goal of this advanced geriatrics fellowship is to develop outstanding academic and/or health care system leaders with vision and knowledge in geriatrics who are committed to leading the discipline in the 21st century.
This VA fellowship provides outstanding geriatric medicine or geriatric psychiatry research training, interdisciplinary educational opportunities, and advanced clinical and program administration learning opportunities.
Fellows have the flexibility to personalize the curriculum based on their interests, and can further their development toward careers as researchers, clinician educators, and/or medical directors.
Robert Hogikyan, MD, MPH, directs the Ann Arbor site for this program.
