Many former fellows are currently academic endocrine surgeons in leading medical centers in the USA. Highlights of the Fellowship (including number of cases and a brief description of the overall program) We perform over 600 endocrine operations each year related to tumors and disorders of the thyroid, parathyroid, adrenal and neuroendocrine tumors of the gastrointestinal tract and pancreas. Advanced endoscopic techniques are primarily used for tumors of the adrenal and for pancreatic tumors. We also have both clinical and research endocrine oncology conferences. We usually have two clinical fellows and two to four research fellows. Our fellows also take courses in scientific writing, epidemiology, and outcome investigations. They become proficient in ultrasonography List of Previous Fellows from this Program Rebecca Sippel, University of Wisconsin Dina Elaraj, Northwestern Rasa Zarnegar, Cornell James Lee, Columbia Geeta Lal, University of Iowa Nadine Caron, University of British Colombia Cord Sturgeon, Northwestern Jennie Ogilvie, University of Pittsburg Wen Shen, UCSF Michael Yeh, UCLA Frederic Triponez, University of Geneva Alan Dackiw, Johns Hopkins.
