Eligibility & Application Information
Thank you for your interest in the University of Washington/Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center Hematology‐Oncology Fellowship Program (ACGME #1555413151). The majority of our fellows elect to train for three years in both hematology and medical oncology, leading to board eligibility in both subspecialties; however, the program is flexible and will consider candidates who are seeking training in the separate subspecialties of either medical oncology or hematology. The program also offers training in the ABIM Research Pathway.
The application process can be complicated. To help, ERAS has provided Tools and Worksheets for Fellowship Applicants.
2020 Virtual Interviews
In accord with the Coalition for Physician Accountability’s Workgroup and the larger GME community’s response to the COVID-19 pandemic, our interviews will be conducted online this year. This includes interviews for applicants from the University of Washington community and the greater Northwest.
Our Commitment to Diversity
Diversity enriches training, scientific discovery and promotes the best healthcare. We are committed to diversity, equity, inclusion and a climate of respect for patients and their families, our students, trainees, faculty, and staff. We strive for diversity in race, culture, ethnicity, sexual orientation, gender-identity, ability, and socioeconomic background.
Our program is committed to the recruitment of trainees from groups under-represented in medicine and to an inclusive and equitable environment.
What to Expect on Interview Day
Our plan for virtual interviews is evolving. Generally, please expect an opening informational session followed by interviews in the morning. Follow-up interviews and conversations may be scheduled for the afternoon depending on your areas of interest. At the end of your interview day, we anticipate an online social event with our current fellows. This will be an opportunity to ask questions, get to know our community, and hear more about why people chose to be here.
