Curriculum

4-12 weeks curriculum

Fellows will be supported to settle down into their new environment. Full induction (safety, laboratory practices, personal welfare, etc.) will be provided by the University’s designated staff and by myself.I will arrange an initial meeting with the fellow to discuss the objectives of the training.

The fellow will be involved to all activities of the Department. They will be able to observe with me (supervisor) and other members of the group different surgical procedures. They will also be engaged in clinical research and write, if they wish, a manuscript during their stay.

The fellow will be given opportunity to take part in group meetings and other academic activities within the School and the University, including attending workshops, conferences, e.t.c , depending on the availability. They will also be encouraged to present their work orally at a group meeting at least once before they complete their visit.

The fellow will also attend the audiology department which evaluates neonates, children, and adults using state of the art audiological procedures (Otoacoustic emissions, Auditory Brainstem Responses,Tympanometry, Auditory Steady State Responses, Electrocochleography, HNG, etc.).

Towards the end of the training I will have a meeting with the fellow to discuss plans to publish their clinical work (if enough data collected) or disseminate their findings in a future conference.

All throughout the training any peculiar challenges or specific requests of a fellow will be fully considered to ensure a responsive, relevant and adequate training plan is developed for them.
A certificate will be provided in those successfully completed the program.
