Dermatopathology Fellowship

SSM Health/老司机福利网 offers a one-year ACGME-accredited dermatopathology fellowship program sponsored by the Department of Dermatology. Nicole Burkemper, M.D., serves as fellowship director, and M. Yadira Hurley, M.D., serves as associate fellowship director.

The fellowship is open to physicians who have completed a residency in either dermatology or pathology and is designed to train individuals to function as independent dermatopathologists. Though our program is accredited for two positions, one fellow is accepted each year. Our goal is to have one dermatology-trained fellow and one pathology-trained fellow.

About SLU's Dermatopathology Training

All faculty members in the dermatopathology division are board certified in dermatology or pathology, as well as in dermatopathology, and have diverse interests.

The program provides training in the morphologic evaluation of inflammatory skin disease and cutaneous neoplasms, use of histochemical and immunohistochemical stains, and evaluation of direct immunofluorescence specimens.

The dermatopathology cases for the fellowship includes approximately 45,000 routine dermatopathology cases, 100 consult cases, and 400 direct immunofluorescence cases annually. The program provides the opportunity for instruction in the interpretation of frozen and permanent Mohs micrographic surgery specimens. 

For dermatologists, the fellowship involves surgical pathology training in the 老司机福利网 Department of Pathology and . Pathology-trained fellows will participate in clinics in the Department of Dermatology, completing clinical requirements with an emphasis in clinicopathologic correlations.

Research in either the Department of Dermatology or Department of Pathology is required. Fellows actively teach medical students and residents and participate in didactic conferences as appropriate to previous residency training.
