Applying to our Program

Application Requirements and Process

Applicants who have completed any AOA or ACGME-approved residency can apply. Applicants with a passion for medical toxicology, education, research and patient care are strongly sought after. We encourage applicants from diverse cultural and social-economic backgrounds.

We host in-person interviews during the months of August, September, and October.  Virtual interviews are available if requested. 

All interested applicants are required to register with the National Resident Matching Program.  Applicants should submit an application via the Electronic Residency Application System (ERAS).  For questions about the program or application process, please contact our Program Director Anthony Pizon, MD (pizonaf@upmc.edu) or Fellowship Coordinator Janna Nelson (gribowiczjm@upmc.edu).
