Ten fellows have been selected to attend through a competitive screening process by the EFF Board of Directors. Applicants are required to complete the application form; provide a one page statement from the fellow’s program director supporting the application; provide a one page letter stating why they feel they should be considered for the program; and provide a copy of their CV. Please note: only 2nd and 3rd year fellows are eligible for the Preceptorship Program.

During this spring’s program, fellows will participate in specialty clinics and be introduced to research approaches and techniques that are particularly useful in the area of metabolic bone diseases.
