Observership Opportunity
The Department of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine is pleased to offer pathology observerships for International Medical Graduates (IMGs) and Foreign Medical Graduates (FMGs) seeking exposure to pathology residency training in the United States of America. Please download and complete the attached form and email it to LUMCPathObservership@luhs.org.
This observership is a non-clinical educational experience intended solely for observational purposes. Observers will rotate with selected pathology faculty members and pathology residents to gain insight into daily workflow, educational activities, multidisciplinary interactions, and residency structure within a U.S. pathology training program.
Observers will not participate in direct patient care and will not have access to patient medical records, patient history, or protected health information (PHI).
Please have these documents ready when applying:
Updated Curriculum Vitae (CV)
Proof of Medical School Graduation (Diploma, Degree Certificate, or Equivalent Documentation)
Sponsorship/Reference from a Pathologist
Please provide the name and contact information of the sponsoring or referencing pathologist who will support your observership application
