The Match Process for Applicants
Match Process FAQs for Fellowship Applicants
Physician scientists (typically with PhDs) are encouraged to apply to the Stanford Translational Investigation Pathway (TIP) at the time of their Internal Medicine Residency Application. TIP members who have demonstrated a solid performance in Internal Medicine Residency are not obligated, but have the opportunity to stay at Stanford University for the subspecialty fellowship program with which they interviewed on their TIP application day. TIP participants will need to apply for subspecialty fellowship through ERAS as positions are administered through The Match consistent with NRMP policies.
Stanford University is an equal opportunity and affirmative action employer. All qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, disability, protected veteran status, or any other characteristic protected by law.
