Welcome to the Transplant Infectious Diseases Fellowship program. The University of Minnesota will offer a 1 year fellowship program that will have comprehensive clinical training and a research curriculum for an physician interested in subspecializing in transplant infectious diseases (TID). We will prepare the next generation of TID physicians to move the transplant ID field forward and to improve outcomes for these complex immunocompromised patients.
