The Pediatrics-Medical Genetics Residency curriculum provides robust pediatrics and medical genetics clinical training as well as access to innovative research opportunities in genetics.

Pediatrics-Medical Genetics Residency Curriculum

Program Progression

Each program year contains thirteen, four-week block rotations. Year One and Year Two residents will have a longitudinal general pediatrics outpatient experience in a setting that provides a medical home for the spectrum of pediatric patients and will care for a panel of patients who identify the resident as their primary care provider. Year Three and Year Four residents will continue this clinical experience in a longitudinal pediatric genetics and metabolism outpatient clinic.

During training the resident will also participate in two graduate level didactic classes.
