Infectious Diseases Fellowship

Welcome to the Children's National Hospital Pediatric Infectious Diseases Fellowship. We are very proud of our program and its unique training opportunities. Our goals are to provide well-rounded training for fellows in clinical pediatric infectious diseases and in medical research. Successful completion of our ACGME-accredited program will provide the individual with the necessary qualifications for a position as a board-certified pediatric infectious diseases specialist.

Our program consists of three tracks, including two FDA Tracks affiliated with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration and a Traditional Track. Clinical training is identical for both tracks, with the tracks differing in research training focus. We also offer a Combined Internal Medicine-Pediatric Infectious Diseases Fellowship in conjunction with the National Institutes of Health /National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases.

Please explore our site to learn more about the Pediatric Infectious Diseases Fellowship.

Sincerely,
Dr. Nada harik Image
