Psychosomatic Medicine Fellowship

The Fellowship Program in Psychosomatic Medicine provides fellows with clinical and didactic opportunities in all areas of clinical psycho-oncology. In addition to clinical rotations with the medical psychiatry services, the fellow will have an opportunity to work with MD Anderson's world-renowned Palliative Medicine and Integrative Medicine programs. 

The one-year clinical Fellowship can be extended to a second research-oriented year, during which the fellow will have an opportunity to develop research skills relevant to psychosomatic medicine.

Applicants must have completed an ACGME accredited Psychiatric Residency program and must meet requirements for board-eligibility in Adult Psychiatry for the American Board of Psychiatry and Neurology.
