The Department of Surgery is proud to host the Trauma and Inflammation Research Training Fellowship and the Armand D. Versaci Research Scholar in Surgical Sciences Award.

Both programs provide two years of salary support for residents or fellows to train under the direct supervision of a qualified mentor.  The objective of both programs is to foster the development of physician-scientists who will go on to academic careers in surgery.
