This new award is expected to begin July 1, 2021 although alternate start dates will be considered to accommodate non-traditional academic schedules.
The ever-increasing complexity of pediatric patients with gastrointestinal, liver and/or pancreatic problems has created a need for pediatric gastroenterologists who are skilled in advanced endoscopic procedures. These skills are difficult to acquire in the course of routine pediatric GI Fellowship training experiences. To address this growing need and to provide a pathway for training of pediatric experts, the NASPGHAN Foundation desires to develop an advanced fellowship in pediatric endoscopy.
The NASPGHAN Foundation Advanced Fellowship in Pediatric Endoscopy will provide up to $75,000 in direct funding to support one year of advanced training in pediatric endoscopy for a member of NASPGHAN in good standing. Applicants are expected to identify a mentor and a host endoscopy program prior to application for funding. The fellowship must include a well-defined clinical experience as well as a focused research and/or quality improvement project. Examples of areas for training include but are not limited to: Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) with stenting and/or sphincterotomy, endoscopic ultrasound (EUS), advanced approaches to control GI bleeding (sclerotherapy, argon laser, clips, etc), transnasal endoscopy, peroral endoscopic myotomy (POEM), esophageal or intestinal stricture dilatation, pancreatic pseudocyst drainage, etc.
The primary objective of the fellowship is to catalyze and increase the number of highly-trained, expert endoscopists clinicians and educators among the membership of NASPGHAN, as a means to improve service to our patients and the public.
Submission Deadline: August 24, 2020
The award is expected to begin on July 1st of each academic term although alternate start dates will be considered to accommodate non-traditional academic schedules.
DESCRIPTION AND OBJECTIVE
Pediatric nutrition is one of the fastest growing areas of scientific and clinical importance to child and population health. To address this growing interest and to accelerate the training of pediatric experts, the NASPGHAN Foundation has partnered with Abbott Nutrition to develop a pathway for advanced fellowship training in pediatric nutrition.
The NASPGHAN Foundation/Abbott Nutrition Advanced Fellowship in Nutrition will provide up to $72,000 in direct funding to support one year of advanced training in pediatric nutrition for a NASPGHAN member. Applicants are expected to identify a mentor and a host nutrition research program prior to application for funding. The fellowship must include a well-defined clinical experience as well as a focused research project. Examples of areas for emphasis include but are not limited to: fetal growth and neonatal nutrition, typical development of feeding skills/behaviors and feeding disorders; nutritional aspects of eating disorders such as anorexia nervosa and bulimia; malnutrition and failure to thrive; nutrition education; nutrition in specific systemic diseases or clinical states such as cystic fibrosis, liver disease, intestinal failure, and organ transplantation; nutrition support; community nutrition; nutrition epidemiology; energy homeostasis; nutrition and the microbiome; micronutrient homeostasis; nutrigenomics; obesity; breast milk and breast feeding; and basic laboratory nutritional science.
The primary objective of the fellowship is to catalyze and increase the number of highly-trained, expert nutrition clinicians, educators and scientists among the membership of NASPGHAN, as a means to improve service to our patients and the public.
