Hepatology Fellowship Opportunity
The Toronto Center for Liver Diseases at University Health Network Toronto invites applications for a one-year Clinical Hepatology Fellowship. The program consists of comprehensive clinical training in both inpatient and outpatient General Hepatology. Fellows also participate in weekly lectures, meetings, and conferences, and are involved in a variety of clinical and research activities which are tailored to their specific interests. Our ambulatory Liver Diseases Clinic is one of the largest in North America with 19,000 patient visits annually, and our clinic environment incorporates patient care with clinical and translational research activities. Our clinical Hepatologists all have extensive subspecialty practices in viral hepatitis, NAFLD, cholestatic liver disease, autoimmune hepatitis, and hepatocellular carcinoma. The program is well suited for Gastroenterology fellows seeking staff positions in Clinical Hepatology, Internal Medicine residents before continuing subspecialty training in Gastroenterology, or subspecialists with an interest in gaining further clinical experience in Hepatology.
Candidates should have completed GI/Hepatology training although we will consider applicants who have completed General Medicine residency training (or equivalent). Evidence of research or other scholarly activity in Hepatology is desirable. Toronto is Canada's largest city, the fourth largest in North America, and cosmopolitan home to a diverse population of 2.8 million people. It is a global centre for business, finance, arts, and culture, and is consistently ranked one of the world's most livable cities.

Dr. Morven Cunningham.
