Fellowship

Our program is aimed at professionals of any nationality interested in Fetal Medicine and in improving their skills at both clinical and research levels. However, before applying for admission we always recommend that you visit us.

Experience in animal models will be valued for certain profiles.
The programs last up to four years, either at the pre or postdoctoral level, and can include the presentation of a doctoral thesis.

•  Short-term stays  (less than 6 months) do not include clinical rotation.
