ASM postdoctoral clinical microbiology fellowship "CPEP-approved fellowship programs prepare scientists and physicians for leadership roles in the medical and public health laboratory microbiology or immunology professions. CPEP-approved programs are open to postdoctoral-level candidates (e.g., Ph.D., M.D., Sc.D., D.O., and Dr. P.H.) and are typically two-year programs but may vary depending on the fellow’s background. There are currently 20 approved programs located in the U.S and available positions are posted through the online application.
Many CPEP graduates find employment in clinical microbiology or immunology laboratories where they become involved in patient care through daily interaction with medical staff, infection control practitioners, clinical pharmacists, and healthcare administrators. CPEP graduates also work in public health laboratories, university or industrial research programs or college or university educational settings. CPEP graduates are active in the discovery, diagnosis, treatment and prevention of infectious and immune mediated diseases, combating the emergence of antimicrobial resistance, investigating potential world pandemics, responding to and preventing bioterrorism events, and leading epidemiologic investigations of local outbreaks."
