Training Opportunities

Advanced Research Training in Otolaryngology Program

Since 1986, the Advanced Research Training in Otolaryngology Program has provided research training in otolaryngology-related disciplines for medical students, resident physicians and post-residency fellows to develop the next generation of clinician-scientists. Research mentors are part of our internationally-recognized faculty consisting of both basic and clinical researchers in a broad variety of disciplines. Many mentors are themselves accomplished clinician-scientists who are in demand as research mentors. To learn more about this program, visit the ARTOP webpage, found on the Department of Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery website.

Hearing, Balance and Chemical Senses (HBCS) Program

The HBCS program provides mentorship and training for students who are interested in becoming leading research scientists in the fields of hearing, balance and the chemical senses. The program aims to train these scientists to obtain academic positions, compete for research funding and effectively manage research laboratories. Learn more.
