To foster additional clinical experience and expertise, fellows are required to develop research projects that represent their sub-speciality. Faculty members will provide assistance and guidance on these endeavors.

The nature of clinical research integrates various missions of the Conemaugh Health System - education, research and patient care. The Research Program within the Conemaugh Health System is dedicated to supporting the research efforts of the medical staff, fellows, residents and students while ensuring compliance with all applicable ethical, legal and regulatory standards. The availability of sophisticated centralized resources offers Conemaugh investigators an exceptional research advantage. Through this structure and the mentorship of many teaching faculty, research will become an important component of resident education and lifelong learning.
