Education and Training

Pulmonary and Critical Care Fellowship

The MICU is the primary critical care training facility for BMC's pulmonary and critical care fellowship at BMC. This three-year program, of which critical care is a core component, provides training for fellows to become board-certified in both pulmonary and critical care medicine. We offer rotations for fellows from both surgical and neurologic critical care.
