About Us
The Reproductive Endocrinology and Infertility Fellowship is a three-year program that will train fellows to become competent REI clinicians. They will function as independent investigators capable of conducting, evaluating, and applying results of relevant scientific research and literature to the clinical setting.
Our fellows will interact with the OB/GYN faculty and with the faculty in other programs, such as Pediatric Endocrinology, Urology and Pediatric and Adolescent Gynecology. In addition, fellows will have the opportunity to work with the research faculty of our Cell Biology department, which is the third highest NIH-funded department in the United States. Fellows will also participate in conferences, didactics and the supervision of resident training.
An option to pursue a Master’s of Science in Clinical Investigation or a Masters in Public Health exists through affiliated educational institutions of Baylor College of Medicine and through the NIH-funded Clinical Scientist Training Program.
Candidates possessing a strong interest in Reproductive Endocrinology and Infertility and research with commensurate surgical skills and who are graduates of ACGME-accredited residency programs in Obstetrics and Gynecology are invited to apply to our program.
Strengths of our program include genetics, pediatric and adolescent endocrinology, hands-on training in IVF, and training in techniques of minimally invasive surgery and robotic surgery.

Our program is designed for individuals who demonstrate a high level of academic performance, have a strong interest in basic research, possess the requisite surgical skills, and most importantly, have a strong desire to develop as independent clinical and laboratory investigators.
