Toxicology
The Medical Toxicology training program at the University of Massachusetts Medical School offers a unique approach to medical toxicology education. UMass fellowship trainees learn, in a rigorous way, the science and art of medical toxicology. Fellows also develop an understanding of medical issues of public health importance and receive mentoring toward achieving NIH funding for independent research investigations. The ultimate goal of training at the University of Massachusetts is to prepare graduates for leadership roles in academic medicine and medical toxicology.

The clinical experience offered by the UMass training program is unmatched. Located in Worcester, the second largest city in New England, UMass Memorial Medical Center is the sole referral facility in central Massachusetts; poisoned patients are drawn from northern Connecticut, Rhode Island, New Hampshire, and southern Vermont.

The UMass fellowship has fundamentally changed the field of medical toxicology in that no other program trains fellows to establish and sustain a successful career as an independent investigator conducting hypothesis-driven medical toxicology research of public importance. With a track record of NIH funding in human subjects and basic science investigations dating to 1989, the Division of Medical Toxicology offers unparalleled research experience and mentoring to fellows seeking academic excellence.
