The ACGME-accredited one-year Head and Neck Pathology Fellowship at Washington University consists of ~6 months of training in head and neck pathology and ~6 months of general surgical pathology, including all of the other general surgical pathology fellowship rotations described below.
Major strengths of the Washington University Selective Pathology Fellowships include a diverse and abundant case mix, the availability of nationally regarded faculty mentors, graduated responsibility for clinical cases (particularly in the area of frozen section diagnosis), and opportunities for clinical research. It is a highly immersive fellowship, with a large volume of specimens ranging from the most complex to the most common to many of the rarest. Fellows learn by seeing and doing and by handling, diagnosing, and pre-dictating most of their cases.
Applications for the 2027-2028 position are open. Please apply at fellowships.path.wustl.edu. Applicants must complete the online application and provide their CV, personal statement, photograph, USMLE scores (step 3 optional), and ECFMG certificate if applicable. The application portal will collect contact information for three individuals who will be asked to write letters of recommendation.
For general questions, please contact the fellowship program coordinator.
