Center of Excellence on Implementing Evidence Based Practice

Fellowship Opportunities

The Center is committed to the professional development of junior faculty and research fellows inVA funded postgraduate training programs in implementation science, system redesign and healthcare informatics. In FY 2008, we had eight VA post-doctoral fellows in our Medical Informatics, Physician Post Resident, Associated Health HSR&D, and Patient Safety fellowships. Dr. Myers recently finished her fellowship and joined the COE as a core investigator. Dr. Schmid, who finished her fellowship over a year ago, was awarded a RCDA through RR&D and is currently in the COE. 

The COE's additional emphasis on fellowship recruitment, development and educational programming is bearing fruit, as we have increased our overall fellowships again this year reaching seven trainees.  We have developed a fellows conference, requested additional opportunities to support qualified candidates and are interviewing candidates for our FY 2008-09 class.    Contact Dr. Neale Chumbler at (317) 988-4509 if you'd like further information.
