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.

Virtual interviews will be hosted during the months of August, September, and October.  

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, William Trautman, MD (trautmanwj@upmc.edu), or our Fellowship Coordinator, Janna Nelson (gribowiczjm@upmc.edu).
