Musculoskeletal Oncology Fellowship
Program Description
The University of South Florida Orthopaedic Musculoskeletal Oncology Fellowship at Moffitt Cancer Center is a one-year program for individuals who have completed an orthopaedic residency and desire to have advanced training in the diagnosis, management and follow-up care for patients with musculoskeletal tumors. The program is based at the campus of Moffitt Cancer Center in Tampa, the only NCI-designated comprehensive cancer center based in the state of Florida, and Johns Hopkins All Children’s Hospital in St. Petersburg.
The goals of the musculoskeletal fellowship are to provide a comprehensive clinical, surgical and academic training opportunity in musculoskeletal oncology and to stimulate our trainees to subsequently provide exemplary clinical care and contribute to future improvements in the field of oncology.

Research
Fellows participate in research and also take advantage of the vast array of opportunities at the cancer center - basic science, translational, epidemiology, radiomics, machine learning/artificial intelligence and bioengineering. Our departmental research focuses mostly on clinical outcomes. Fellows have biostatistician support as well as research coordinator/IRB support. There are several intramural funding sources for research, including the Junior Scientist Research Partnership. This is a program pairing a clinical fellow with a postdoc/PhD candidate to work together on a team science collaborative project. Moffitt holds an annual scientific symposium for fellows, residents, post docs and PhDs to present their work. Fellows are encouraged to submit to this as well as to regional, national and international conferences.
