Led by national and international cancer experts, the Hematology-Oncology Fellowship Program at IU Simon Comprehensive Cancer Center and IU School of Medicine focuses on surgical, medical, and radiation oncology.
You’ll find unique opportunities for research, including the Komen Tissue Bank, Brown Center for Immunotherapy, Walther Cancer Foundation, Regenstrief Institute, Big Ten Cancer Research Consortium, and the Hoosier Cancer Research Network.
We’ve published multiple landmark trials in the areas of lung, colon, bladder, breast, pancreas, ovarian, germ cell tumors, quality of life, and survivorship.
Our Hematology-Oncology Fellowship is one of the oldest programs in the United States, established by the legendary Dr. Lawrence Einhorn in 1975.
