Information for Applicants

Thank you for your interest in the NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital/Weill Cornell Medicine Infectious Diseases Fellowship Training Program. Our program is designed to train physicians primarily for academic positions which combine practice with research (laboratory, clinical or epidemiological). Preference is given to candidates seeking three years of training. Fellows are eligible to sit on the Boards in the Subspecialty of Infectious Diseases after the second year of training.

For additional information, please review our division brochure which highlights the clinical, research and supplemental training opportunities that our program offers. In it you will find a more detailed description of the training program, a sample schedule, a description of conferences, and summaries of our faculty and fellow research interests, recent publications and current grants.

All applications for our program should be submitted through the Electronic Residency Applications Service (ERAS). In most circumstances, applicants must be U.S. citizens or green card holders because of funding sources for training. Occasionally, J or O visas can be accommodated.

Applications must include the following documentation:

• All required ERAS Application fields
• Curriculum Vitae
• Residency Program Director's Letter of Recommendation
• Two additional letters of recommendation
• Personal statement
• Photograph

We look forward to receiving your application!

Sincerely,
Kristen Marks, M.D.
Program Director, Infectious Diseases Fellowship Program
