The
Department of Laboratory Medicine is heavily involved in the education
of Yale undergraduate students, medical and graduate school students,
and post-doctoral individuals. Department faculty members also participate
in programs at the Yale School of Nursing and the Yale Physician
Associate Program. We offer a number of continuing education programs
throughout the year in New Haven, in other cities and on-line. In
addition, two review-article clinical publications, Lab News and
the Clinical Virology Newsletter, are published on a regular basis
in print and on-line. Follow the links below for more information
on our various activities in education and training.
