Sterling Lab Fellowships

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
Interesting. When I was looking for a job that lab was looking for a pathologist who specialized in GU or GI. They hired a recruiter to find a pathologist and she passed me along to them but they never called back (I found out through the recruiter that they weren't interested in me in the end. oh well got a bettet job anyway) I know they were doing some pod lab work. I guess they figured out a cheaper way to get someone to do the work? 🙂
 
Seal Beach California? Or ??

There is nothing at Seal Beach in CA aside from run down strip malls filled with asian salons and taquerias.

sounds very scamish.
 
Anyone know anything about this fellowship? I see they offer GI and GU fellowship in Seal Beach. The beach part of Seal beach is pretty attractive.

One ought to consider professional goals prior to applying to non-academic-run fellowships.

If one seeks to get paid reading biopsies in a lab after fellowship, then the non-academic fellowship is not a bad choice, as it would serve as an apprenticeship, where one would have quite a bit of autonomy over cases, see high volume, and basically hone their skills for their chosen trade.

If one would like to venture into academic medicine for a few years prior to jumping to a private practice supergroup, then perhaps it would be better to look for an academic-run fellowship, which would involve academic exercises such as tumor boards, med student/resident teaching, grand rounds, writing papers, presenting at local, regional conferences, etc.- all of which would make for a candidate better regarded to be able to engage academic practice.

Am not interested in applying to the fellowship. I have just been seeing it in careermd emails and was curious.
