Specific curriculum is based on a fellow's prior training in either dermatology or pathology. Dermatology-trained fellows have rotations in a variety of anatomic pathology subspecialties such as soft tissue and lymph node pathology in addition to extensive dermatopathology exposure. Pathology-trained fellows obtain exposure to clinical dermatology through clinical rotations and clinical correlation with clinical history and images during dermatopathology rotations.

Fellows in both tracks have additional training in:

• Molecular genetics
• Immunopathology
• Electron microscopy
