Description

Grant Medical Center is an American College of Surgeons verified level 1 center in downtown Columbus, Ohio where we see approximately 7000 patients per year with over 6000 admissions. Combined with our other Ohiohealth trauma institutions we collect data on over 12,000 trauma patients per year.

Our research fellowship was founded in 2016 . In that time we have over 90 projects leading to multiple national publications as well as local, regional, and national presentations stemming directly from the fellowship.

Some highlights of the fellowship:

·        *Fully funded position sponsored by Division of Trauma Research & Scholarship and supported by OhioHealth Research Institute

·       *Educational curriculum with lectures on research design, literature search, biostatistics, interpreting literature

·    *Opportunity to take call at Grant Medical Center

·      *Full-time research fellowship with administrative, clinical, and statistician support

·      *One-on-one mentorship and close involvement with trauma surgeon faculty

·       *Opportunity to mentor medical students participating in Summer Research Externship Program

·       *Fellowship is based in Columbus, but much work can be performed remotely

·       *Salary is commensurate with PGY level at home institution
